she is 21 passed her test 3 months ago
she currently has a 106 1.1 which has no electric anything no power steering and she wants rid for something different.
Got about 2k to spend it can be diesel or petrol as she does not do alot of miles. has to have powere steering and preferably slightly bigger than a 106

You can't go wrong with a Ford Fiesta.

Manni

Fiesta would be a great choice. Petrol or diesel isn't really going to matter in a car like that which isn't going to do massive miles. The small petrols return low 40s driven gently.

Or a KA. Should be able to get a decent one for that

Manni

think they did the KA with the 16V 1.25 engine as well as the ancient 1.3. Can't knock a car that was designed so long ago but is still doing the business.

MG ZR, got the wife one about 6months back and she loves it, and have to say driving it myself, its not a bad drive,

Not being funny but I test drove a brand new 106 with my ex who was looking for a cheap car and it was dangerous. Brakes were horrendous. Worse car I have ever driven and my first car was a 1.2 Nova lol.

agreed thought there was something wrong with the brakes and it does not turn well at all it is basically dangerous which is why i want a new car for her

tell u what a GTI6 might be an option.
got a vr6 at the minute plus full no claims and when i added the girlfriend the day after passing her test it took 50 quid of my insurance rather strange

Brendan Hughes

Sorry, but 3 mths after passing her test and she only does a few miles a day, I don't think a high performance car of any kind is particularly sensible. Unless you've taken out a good life assurance on her?

she drives my vr6 all the time.
a car only goes as fast as u make it it does not drive itself!!
