just looked on autotrader for any cars under £500, and found:
Fiesta (umm, no)
Renault 21 4 door diesel for £100 in God knows what condition, there was no picture, but it looked like this:

2000 Toyota Estima Lucida 2.2 turbo diesel for £100, couldn't see anything bad in the ad, but they just had pics of some of the Lucidas they'd had in before, like this:

Ford Explorer, I'm not getting one of those, i's a tank, and you look gay.
This thing for just £200, but in need of brake pads, dunno how much hassle/cash that is, but a lo-vol would be cool.
a Yellow Pug 206 advertised as "in good condition" but with no pic.
Then I saw something I thought would look quite cool, a Volvo somethingorother, the hatchback version at £445, at the bottom of this page:
