Fiat Coupe NA. You walked into that one. My VIS is my daily driver. The boot is bigger than many hatchbacks, the rear seats are good enough so long as you're not a 6 footer. What's not to like? Other than that, to narrow it down, what kind of car are you looking for? Any brands you don't like? Do you need good mpg? Do you want good power? Diesel? Petrol?

I'm rolling in a Volvo V70 that I picked up last year for around your budget. Very practical, and mine is the 2.5T so I even get the 5 cylinder turbo soundtrack like the coupe. It has loads of toys (premium audio system = ) and the seats are the most comfy of any car I've driven.

For half that you can get a decent Saxo VTR. If you insist on spending it, you can get a VTS. The 205 GTi for the new Millennium.
I want my daily driver to be fun and the only bit of the 30k I've not enjoyed in my VTR was when I saw the 'safety' camera van.

I am 46, the days of hot hatches are long behind me! My dad is 75 and drives a hot hatch. Live the dream !! Fabia vRS. Great car. They hold their value though. What about a Mk 1 A3 1.9tdi (130). Fast and 50mpg.
