The Manta is my favorite VHF, it doesn't really have any particularly shining qualities but more importantly it doesn't really have any particularly glaring weaknesses either.
I think I still have my most combat hours in a Manta.

Try a Chimaera, Katana, Bastet and/or Sabre.

Sabre, Stinger, or Wraith.

Sabre, well I guess it's not bad for begginers but get full potencial of it you need some skill.
Titan. Oh a lot of firepower quite strong hull. But you'll find out to be outturned often in the start.
Order VHF ... perhaps it would be the best choice then.
Oh and do not forget Odin!

It's also the only fighter I know of that has both a CD/T and a CD. It's the ultimate piracy machine.
Five class ten guns, CD/T, CD, M, CM and one class 5 turret.
One of mine has 5 Sammaels and a Belial, Mini, TCD, Screamers. The other has four Sammys, one Sidewinder, the rest the same.
Beautiful ship.

Yawn...again
No the stinger or...whatever else you would call it is the best i've used. You may not like the skins but who cares when you're making everyone jealous because they don't have a ship anymore and you're flying away with their loot.

My personal favourites are either Wraith or Sabre, they're both well rounded and Wraith is one step closer to the agility side.
If you want loads of armour and guns but don't want to worry about evading, buy a bomber or SHF.

VHFs are nice, but some of the HFs can be even more fun and zippy. Very hard to hit especially in big fights.

Start with what you think looks the coolest.
Move on from there.
What works for me might not work for you.

Gladiator has CD/T and CD as well. Only four guns... but then again those guns can be Tizonas. It's pretty nice too.
I'd actually recommend a Manta or a Nephthys. The Nephthys has a serious powerplant and armor, and once you pick up even the most basic dodging should help let you get in a lot of shots before going down. The Manta, on the other hand, is mostly vertical and so may help you learn to dodge more effectively than the Nephthys, while still having a respectable powerplant (although not so much on the armor). These two ships also can find huge battles without any real difficulty- the BHG and Order war is pretty serious, and there's enough going on that you probably won't get targeted too early. Not to mention that having a fleet behind you is good for morale, and the "can-do" attitude will do as much for you as actually knowing how to aim and dodge.
