Hey guys, currently driving a Fiesta Zetec-S. I have been wanting to change for a while but that time will come in the new year when I'm 21 with 3 years N/C bonus. The Fiesta is rattling and knocking on front offside wheel and rear somewhere, no garage or Ford I have been to can find the problem so I'm getting rid, also has some rust about the size of a £2 coin on the rear arch.
I'm after something fun, insurance wise I'm not too fussed, I can insure a 106GTI for £600 currently so should be even better at 21.
When I have cleared my current debt off I will be getting the car, so say £2.5k for the Fiesta plus say another £2.5k.
Will look at anything, diesel, hatch, aslong as it is a fun drive. Not really after MX5's or anything like that, just scream out midlife crisis to me. Cars that do tickle my fancy are...
ClioSports 182 - Love the looks over the P1 172 and later 172's.
106 GTI - Had a quicksilver and that was a good laugh to drive and it's quicker than the ZS.
Mk4 Golf - 1.8T is also reasonable to insure now, so is the V5. Like the look of them but not sure if performance is to match.
V6 406 Coupe - Love these!!! Looks are fantastic and the interior is very very comfortable, how reliable are they and whats the performance like compared to the competition?
IF I could find a good deal on a Corsa VXR then I might even put the 4-5k as a deposit and get a loan out for the rest, but only if it was a good deal after test driving one etc.
Any recomendations or other options I could take? Insurance seems to be on my side, by time of upgrade it will be 21, 3 years NC and 3 points.
TIA
