I would recommend a small car with some "feel". It is very hard for a learner to understand what they are supposed to be doing with a Toyota, as inputs make no difference.

 

I'd vote for Clio or 106. Can pick one up for a song, they're good cars (if you keep them serviced) and have more driver involvement than a cheap small Jap car, hopefully teaching her instinctive car control by feedback from the car.

They're also easy to sell once she's bored. Learner drivers and students always want Clios and 106s, and then occasionally a boy racer would take one off your hands too.

YMMV etc
