First car for a tall driver?

Can you suggest cars that might be suitable for a young (17 year old), very tall (6'3") driver, who finds many cars very uncomfortable, but has a limited budget and a 17 year old's insurance premiums. Thanks

Apparently he will fit in a Citroen C2, Peugeot 107 or Toyota Aygo. I know a huge guy of 6' 8" who can drive one.
