So, did I or didnt I?

Ins quote for a 97 punto..

1800 with no breakdown.. :D SWEET!! Luckily enough i get breakdown cover with my HSBC bank account for any car im in ;)
 
Well done mate, as people have said, dont drive like a numpty now. Remember if you crash your insurance will go through the roof!
 
Ouch with the quote, that is a lot of cash mate!
Is it deffo the punto you want? I suggest you look at your budget, and you insurance budget then make a nice thread on here asking for the best options. Pay attention to what people say here, they know a lot that you, and I, don't know.
Congrats on the pass, im nearly at the end of my two year period and I still love it... just hungry for a bigger and better car now :D

I know that the prices are goig to be high and to be fair, thats not too bad compared to what others would cost me, plus i can pay for this car weekly from my friend so its easier this way.
 
1800 is wayyyy too expensive mate.

1.25 fez for me at 17 was 970ish TPFT. is better than the punto in every possible area :)

altho im in a good post code, that was with barclays btw.

You can pay it weekly? How so? What happens when he changes his mind half way through your payments and wants it all? Who will be the registered owner of the car? Do you have any money saved up for a car?
 
um have a look around ratehr than just doig confused etc they arnt really that good tbh.

Ive found cheaper buy searchin 3 websites manually in the last 2 years.

(I mean cheaper by a few 100 not a few quid)
 
1800 insurance for a 97 Punto is bloody madness, unless you have savings and/or are well off, in which case, you wouldn't be buying said car in the first place.

This statement speaks volumes about how little you yet know about driving!

Driving is one of the few things in life that you will never learn fully, and just when you think you've seen it all, something comes along & bites you.

Is there anything in life we know fully, i used to spend 60hrs a week maintaing servers and after 5 years there was still huge amounts to learn. I enjoy walking buut my knowledge of walking boots goes as far as its leather looks good and feels comfy in the shop.

Okay neither is likely to bite me as mush as driving but i have other things to worry about more. Although this year i have done more driving in the states than here so i have learnt a lot :p

Hes my best friend, known him my whole life, im close with all his family, they pretty much helped bring me up..

He wouldnt say that plus im signing the forms this week as its soon to be sorn as he isnt going to re MOT it as he lost his licence so i need to.

Mums just told me shes giving me £100 towards my car or insurance :D
 
Ok so it is going to be registered as your car? What condition is it in and when was it last serviced, is it likley to pass this mot?
