TheThing Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Quite simple really... reasons would be welcomed to, this is all to help a friend with his purchase.
Cube Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Bugatti Veyron. Seriously, how much do you/he aim to spend?
spirited away Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Erm Ford Ka, cheap reliable. Maybe a bit of a femine car, and may be a bit small for their needs. Depends what your freinds looking for? Bugatti Veyron if it was comercially sold, only 850 or so grand.
Cube Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 OLD SKOOL MINI! Isn't the insurance on those massive?
ipaul Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Isn't the insurance on those massive? Ah never thought about that.
Fierce_LiNk Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Erm Ford Ka, cheap reliable. Maybe a bit of a femine car, and may be a bit small for their needs. Depends what your freinds looking for? Bugatti Veyron if it was comercially sold, only 850 or so grand. Nothing femininininine about a Ford Ka. I had one. Sweet little cars. I miss mine now.
spirited away Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 For pure generic reliability, Ford Focus?. We have one too,I like it apart frorm the fact there's only two doors. Fine unisexual car it is.
TheThing Posted February 7, 2007 Author Posted February 7, 2007 some where around £500 would be helpful, its going to have to be 2,3 or possibly 4th hand, i think a fiesta would be suitable, its stylish and easy to come by, hes also looking to tune it. A Veyron may prove useful if he lived on an airfield :P
DiemetriX Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I would recommend you the same as my first car. Cheap, reliable and good looking. Mercedes benz 190E
Platty Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 First car should always be an old banger. Old bangers teach you how to drive and are also cheap enough not to worry about when you smash it up
Guest Stefkov Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Vauxhaul Corsa, my brother has one and its alright.
Eddage Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 some where around £500 would be helpful, its going to have to be 2,3 or possibly 4th hand, i think a fiesta would be suitable, its stylish and easy to come by, hes also looking to tune it. A Veyron may prove useful if he lived on an airfield :P Hit the nail on the head right there! My sister, brother and I all had Fiesta's as our first cars, they're cheap to buy and run and very reliable!
ipaul Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I would recommend you the same as my first car. Cheap, reliable and good looking. Mercedes benz 190E Just like you
Johnny Stichiano Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I drive ab '05 Sx 2.0. Ya know, the new Neon. But that's a 17,000 car so... My bro's first truck is an '83 Datsun
DiemetriX Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Just like you Well thank you ipaul :awesome:
welsh_gamer Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Vauxhall Corsa - tends to be a car people learn in with proper driving instructors, and is popular among young people. Although it depends if the Corsa, is a 'chav' car in your eyes. I don't think so anyhoo, my little Corsa (nicknamed Rita) rules!
BeerMonkey Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 smart car has very low insurance but if really cheap try a old skool golf or fiesta
Oli1983uk Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 As some people have said go for either a Feista or Corsa as first car, good little cars and cheap to repair if anything should go wrong. my first car was this: (well it wasnt that one mine was the same just with out the red strpes down the side)
Charlie Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 I would go to a car auction and just buy the cheapest car possible for the first time, you'll be able to get one for a couple of hundred pounds. Then if anything happens to it, you hardly spent anything on it so it doesn't matter all that much. I've got a Peugeot 106 at the moment, its a great car, I love it despite its 'few' faults.
