i think iwould also look at estate versons what you think

what do you think would be the best, im aware there all be high milers, so i chose reliable brands, even though theres the odd one thats only done 50,000 miles.

what do you think, good bad? any reccomendations steer clears?

Answer 1

i would get an MG ZT or an MG ZS or even an MG ZR!! all brilliant car and are quite cheap! they look fab aswell

Answer 2

I would like to recommend you possess as much information as you can before taking action,here is a good place for that purpose.http://car-insurance.easyideas4u.info/ca...

Answer 3

Pergeot would be a good one. But whenever you buy a used car, you get what someone else didn't want.

Its easier to buy a new one anyway.

Look at some by GM.

They have 8 gas ones that get 30mpg or better.

A diesel VW Jetta Twin Turbos would be nice, and I have been thinking about getting one of them.

Answer 4

If you have an accident and the insurers find out that yoiu are the main driver, they will cancel the cover and you will be in deep trouble.

Find out what you can affrod to insure in your own name and choose from that llist.  It will be a less impressive list than the one you have made so far, but as your first car is likely to be involved in several scrapes etc due to you inexperience, you shoudl start with somnething less fancy.

Answer 5

Hatchbacks: Peouget 106, Corsa, Fiesta....

Keep it small, enviromentally friendly and a low insurance group.

It's going to be your first car, why get something thats gonna be overly flashy?

i started with a 106 (£500). Now i'm driving a s2000 and i have, what i consider cheap insurance with 3years No Claim Bonus.

Stay away from turbos and anything over 1.9L. You'll find it hard to find an insurance company to insure you, and if you do... Your talking quite abit of money.

Don't go under your mothers name, insurance companys have been known to stop you and your mum from getting a No Claim Bonus.

First thing you wanna do while your a new driver is to build a NCB.

Answer 6

honda accord i have got one and they are great

Answer 7

mini cooper there very small car or a cheap car

Answer 8

Your better to start off on your own insurance trust me. You have to start your own no claims bonus somewhere! Even if your building them up as a named driver on your mums policy insurance companies won't recognice them when you leave your mums policy so you'll have to start your NCB's all over again.

My advice, set up your own policy and get something small and reliable for a few years, I started off at 17 with a Saxo 1.4 Furio 2001 and it done me well, Now 3 years later I can insure a Astra Coupe Turbo and it will be arriving in 4 months.

Answer 9

Either the Golf or the Honda Accord.

The Honda Accord is the most reliable car in the world.

The Golf is Europes most popular car and one of the best selling cars in the world.
