Advice please. He's been sensible so far. Let's keep him on the straight and narrow and not in a ditch or lampost.

 

Good luck with whatever you end up with ryan

I take it your not having the black 54 plate civic then

 

Who knows mate, the civic is only a sport so may be going backwards

 

Have a good think about what you really want before jumping in AGAIN ry........

What im getting at is the way you change your mind after a couple of months

 

Ry, an ex of mine had a Derv astra 1.8(i think it was 1.8) SRi Cdti in a 3 door, fair play it went like stink and not a bad looking car the 3 door with some nice alloys, had the stiffer suspension etc so wasnt bad handling either. can pick them up pretty cheap too, and they're bloody tremendous on derv, **** it id put red in myself!!!
Alternatively as others have said, as you know my mate had a 172 cup and it went well in fairness, i know the build quality on them and interior aint the best but surely you can cope with that for a couple of years until you get some more ncb. Ffs ive been driving my subaru for 3 years now and fair play the classic interior has a lot to be desired.!got the sti8 seats now but the dash is abismal, but that sort of thing dont bother me much as everything else more than compensates!!!
oh just another thought, 306 Gti6, getting old now i know but you dont see many of them about, not bad handling, a mate just sold his for 2.2k, another mate bought one not long ago for £800!!!worth a look at.
good luck bud

ry a mate of mine had a golf gt tdi it was chipped and to be honest went like **** and it was still ex on fuel

 

VC's just bought 1 VW Golf GT TDi with 100k for £1500 as his "beater".

 

Had our beer google on on Saturday night did we? Did not recognise the fine young lady?

Keep up the Facebook banter and you may get away with it.

 

Thanks lads, getting more swayed towards a derv now. Think a type r is out of the question as i phoned sky today and wouldn't insure me untill im 25 lol They will however insure me on a clio 172 when i'm 19 next month. Ill keep shopping around

 

No i didn't recognise her atall mate Dont worry though something may be in the pipeline

 

Skoda Fabia VRS could be worth a look. Massive torque with a remap too and nice German quality interior

 

There's a VRs Fabia in Germania in Newport £5000.
