Does a low insurance, low tax, high mpg but powerful small car exist?

Is there a small car that has low insurance group, low tax, approx 1.4 engine, high mpg, out there?

My commute to work is on windy, narrow country roads, so I need something small but nippy, that handles corners and very steep hills really well! But it's also a 50-mile round trip, so I need good mpg too! Currently have a Hyundai i10 but it feels a bit 'wobbly' on some corners and struggles with the inclines.
