Are there many tyres left in 14 inch? I thought there'd only be one or two good brand ones?

Yes, performance tyres for a 14" wheel are a dying breed.

viragmakwana, I'm guessing from your previous posting that you're UK based - this forum is 99% Australians so the tyres readily available to us are not necessarily the same. I'd recommend asking some folks with more knowledge of the UK market, e.g. MX5Nutz forums.

Oh i had no idea, thanks for letting me know, and thanks for the help on the horn, found the culprit on the steering wheel side.

Toyo Proxes R888R
or
Yokohama Advan Neova AD08RS

Both are still available in 185/60R14 in the UK
