Second thread in here recently, but different purpose.

Okay, coming upto where i want to start driving, so im looking to buy a first car that can be used for the first few months :p

Not wanting it to be overly fast, but to be good enough to get me from A to B, but not look like ****.

Insurance must be quite cheap.

Sub £900 on the car.

Reason for so cheap is that once its all done, test is sorted i will be going into Automatic i think :p *awaits flame*.

Been looking at Renault Clio, Corsa, Saxo.

Any ideas on a car to get?

Should have made it more clear, car must be sub £900.

Insurance should just be quite cheap :p

And the car will be used for possibly 6 months or so.

I will be moving into a bigger and or better car at a later date.

What you wnat to do is get insurance quotes.

Either silly small cars, or old sabbs, volvos ect can be cheap to insure.

pretty much all cars will get from a to b fine, it just depends if you can live with the image.
I'd rather it looked okay, like some Clio's, Saxo's.

I quite like the Civic's too - but maybe expensive to insure?

Any others to look at, that are actually fairly nice cars :p

It's all down to insurance, clios saxos can be expensive to insure as they are populer with young drivers and therefore are a risk to insurance companies,

This is why old volvos and saabs with 2 liter turbos can be cheap, as the insurance companies don't have data for young drivers so the risk is less.

But as I said get on auto trader find cars for under 900 pic a few you like and run some quotes, as everyone can get different cars for different insurance prices.
Not really wanting something like 2 litre.
Dont want anything too big :p

What about a Civic?

Automatic? Small car? - Don't be so bloody silly lad!

Obviously, you want a 6 pot BMW & steptronic gearbox, or, perhaps something like a Fiesta? ;) :D
Wanting a manual small car first.

After a few months going for a bigger car, wanting a nice old BMW, like the one David_b posted, if i could afford it :p
