Edit Reason: Forgetful

Thinking about possibly changing from the HDi to something else...main reason is insurance. I'm finding it hard to justify the cost for the insurance when I can get something newer, quicker, safe and in some ways nicer for the same cost.
I was wondering what ideas you all had, so many cars I'm sure I haven't thought of them all!
I'd like something reasonably quick, not lightening speed but actually goes.. After driving things like a van, dear lord that was painful!
Something I don't need to modify or modify much.
Half reasonable on fuel (35-40mpg motorway?)
Has to be safe and have space for me to crate out for the dogs as I go to a lot of shows, they're my main priority!!
Running costs.. Tax no more than I pay now (270ish?), insurance not too much, paying around 500 as is (not looking forward to renewal!)
Reasonable on brakes etc.. Don't want to be burning money away!
Also doesn't have to be an estate, roomy hatchback I can make work, or even a 4x4 style car. The rear safety of a 306 has given me good ideas for dog crate
Ball park on purchase cost probably around £2000 to £3000
Any ideas would be a great help to help me think of something practial!!
