*WANTED* Cheap first car

[palmer]

Well, im after buying my car in a few months time. (So i can have a little play with it before it goes on the road)

Am looking for anything from a 1.1-1.4

Saxo/106 that kind of thing.

Under 2k if possible.

Cheers

You can have my cherished BMW 3 series if you want. Granted it's a 2.5 Turbo Diesel but insurance isn't too bad, and it's a lot of car for 2grand.

[Rookie]

I'd love to see some get insured on a 3 series at 17.

[palmer]

1.1i saxo is 1550

[jonnay]

A 1 ltr suzuki swift is £1300 for me

Fookin Jap cars, why's the insurance always more on them?

I'll pay it though, it's pretty quick for what it is (compared to other 1 ltrs, Corsa for example. Mine's shit slow)

Look out the 1.2 clios, can get a 1999-2000 model for about 2k. Good little cars, 4 star ncap crash rating, air bags, not bad looking, cheap to run. Im planning on getting one.

Kind of got my heart set on a saxo.

My sister had one (i planned to have it when she bought a new car) but she wrote it off.

Was fairly sporty, fast to 60 aswell (well, fastest 1.1 i was in )


Some decent bucket seats, uprated suspension, induction kit and ill be well away

Hmmm... https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Citroen-Saxo-Westcoast-1-4-One-of-a-kind-Stunning-NR_W0QQitemZ4643248148QQcategoryZ18174QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Well my mate is sellin his saxo. W reg. not been thrashed or anythin so not bad nick really. I think he's lookin around the £2600 for it though.

[M1ke]

Just put my 1.4 306 on ebay which may take your fancy. Its pretty nippy for a 1.4 too and really cheap on the insurance.

Or a paxo as it was in one case!

I have the perfect vehicle for you:

my Austin Allegro, 1300cc Mg engined beast
in tweety bird yellow
complete with retro vinyl roof.
Has 60 000 miles on the clocks,
the new MG engine has done 30 000 miles.
currently Sorn and lacking an MOT
comes with air conditioning via the rust holes in the wheel arches.


£70 and she's yours

Just thought i'd say, have you tied for quotes on a car with a higher engine size than a 1 litre to 1.4 it cheaper for me to insure a 1.8 vauxhall astra than it is for me to insure a 1.4 vauxhal astra, i think it work that way because most new drivers go for lower powered cars.

[mattish]

I will second what mr.rulez says, my 1.8 sierra was cheaper by far then a 1l fiesta or me mums 1.6 astra ... and Im 21 nearly 22

[21chappers]

Shame that doesnt work on a Renault 21 turbo
They're about £3000 third party, fire and theft for me.

[0ddball]

Is there still a running 21 turbo on the road? I thought they had all blown up by now.

[Jenks]

No way - Still going quite strong!
Well untill people thrash them

Ive loved them since i was about 10, took 21Chappers to a car show with them there, and he fell in love.
