I'm looking at a focus as well for an upgrade especially the 1.6 tdci

got a bigger boot than the astra, does 0-60 in 10 seconds making it quicker than the petrol version and the 1.9 tdi golfs and still returns better mpg

only £90 annual tax and for the newer econetic versions they are only £30. Cheap to insure aswell.

Okay, so I'm under 20, no no-claims bonus, will have 2 years licence (in about 3 weeks). Looking to buy a car and wanna limit the cost with insurance to about £5000 (maybe a bit over), so..... can anyone help me out with recommendations on models?

I've been looking at Autotrader and eBay but I dunno what really to go for 'cause I don't know sh*t about cars. I just need something that doesn't look like crap that won't break down and won't kill on the insurance.

So yeah, can anyone tell me what I should be looking for?

no sympathy here im afraid

women drivers are the cancer eating away at the flesh of the roads and motorways

no doubt it ewas your fault... checkin your relflection in a mirror..... lost in your own world listenin to some jls ... or just doing something plainly retarded due to poor visio spatial awareness which sadly is pathologically endemic to anyone with a clunge

LET'S BE REAL HERE.

ASIANS ARE THE WORST DRIVERS.

BY MILES.

ESPECIALLY AUNTIES.

ALSO WHO KNOW'S THE PLACE FOR I.C.E NEED TO GET THE BANGERS SOUND SYSTEM.

Afgoon -

Yeh your right woman are sh*t drivers.

:rolleyes:

That's why our insurance is lower than guys!

because when you do crash you're going soo slow that you don't need to claim off the insurance

Got jokes eh

Hardy harr!

No been a passanger in my car, Im not a go slow driver.

Na i know i was just stereotyping, i prob know more girls that drive fast than i do boys

Girls do tend to be more wary though (for birds, cats etc)

I agree, Plus with being a horse rider, im much more curtious on the road than alot of other drivers I know, the way some people drive up behind horses is bloody shocking.

Pet hate : People who speed from one speed bump to another then slam the breaks on, WTF you doing you reckless prick!!

Depends how far it is between speed bumps..i can't stand driving 20-30 if there's nothing infront of me, feels like im not getting anywhere.

True but theres no need to leave breaking till last minute, (unless its an emergency stop like) don't people know thats what the gears are for, some people call them selfs drivers yet dont know how to work up and down the gears.

Yeh it's true..i don't brake harshly.. id just rather keep changing from 2nd to 3rd then back down to 2nd for the bump and so on and so on instead of staying in 2nd till the end of the road.
