IF you have a friendly insurance agent:
Make an appointment for you and your daughter.
The insurance agent is going to have all kinds of facts as to safety, insurance costs, initial costs, reliability, etc. that none of us here with have (unless they are either in the insurance industry or the car sales industry).
If you trust the agent, LISTEN!
Get a list of suggested makes, models, years, etc.; then visit a used car lot. Let your daughter actually look at the various cars (aesthetics), sit in the cars (seat adjustment, comfort, etc.) and check out the instruments layout.
If she finds a model she really likes, ask her if she likes the color, interior, etc.
Then starting looking for that model.
Along with finding something she likes that is safe, you have the added benefit of trust from your daughter, for allowing her to make a decision.
Jon.
