Mk4 Astra, sensible and not really the most exciting motor, but it does just about everything to a good standard. A decent all rounder, pretty dependable and genreally inexpensive to repair.
An early Focus might stretch your budget badly, but if you can, buy one. They still look good and drive well, but crucially, they're hightly rater for reliability and being a Ford, parts will be plentiful and cheap. An absolute no-brainer.
Another suggestion is the MK1 Nissan Almera. Dull, dull, and then some more, although being underrated does wonders for prices, and it's a reliable, competent car under the unimaginative bodyshell.
All cars should manage at least 35-40MPG if engines are under 1.8 litres.

I bought a Peugeot 405 TD (1995) 6 years ago still have it, never let me down. So I would recommend a diesel Peugeot.

Vauhall Astra or VW Golf are always reliable.
