lol i edited the post about 10 times. didn't realise people could see the previous versions. but yeah. the owner included the unit in the price which was nice of him. Found it on the back seat, boxed and all

My last update for the thread Well I can honestly say it drives fine minus the odd scratch here and there, for a soon to be 12 year old car It's in great condition and I am happy with it. It's a nice little car. It will serve its intended purpose as my first car, but still fairly agile and...

what car would you have got, oh great, superior, car man on an internet forum? by the way I wouldn't be talking like this if you had changed your tone in your original message, but it seemed you had set out solely to say my purchase was ****. when I was clearly content with it. -it was 1.9k...

not a single ***Don't swear*** was given. why the hate? do you really think i didn't even inspect the car? it is in great condition. i stood out in the rain for a good 40min walking around it trying to find bits wrong with it why would having tints be a bad thing. and the wheels look good to me...

OFFICIAL UPDATE!!! BOUGHT A 2001 FIESTA ZETEC S, WENT AND TRIED IT OUT AND EVERYTHING, WAS PRETTY GOOD FOR THE PRICE has nice wheels, only 44k miles, everything seemed to be in good condition. it has had a new exhaust put on (which sounds pretty nice) and as a bonus it has tinted windows and a...

that actually looks pretty good, thanks for taking your time to look (and anyone else looking for me) i ran the insurance on it: its £2100 only gripe is the mileage is higher than i'd like also specs says it has recaro seats, i don't see them :p

*sigh* i am beginning to think this is the right thing to do :/ Welp, I guess I am gonna have to do some research on good but less powerful cars then thanks for talking some sense to me

it's alright. thanks for taking the time to look ideally I want under 60k miles to avoid any potential problems with the car early on, just to be on the safe side :) so that rules out the S3 and the CTR. The corolla I don't really like the look of. I will look further into the CTR as they...

yeah. the owner's mate probably advertised it as a joke. quite a good joke actually

wtf how is this possible.. there has to be some kind of catch here. that's crazy cheap yeah maybe it is.

Thanks for your replies so far everyone

yeah I am using moneysupermarket.com. that is getting me much cheaper quotes than compare the market

cheapest for the seat (using same settings as other quotes) was £5355! couldn't see about the celica as no reg

ill check this now just checked, it's a C apparently

oh. Yeah I know the st and clio are, thought the swift was quite sneaky what would you recommend

ok, I understand what you're saying therefore, being the slower out of the 3, but still very agile (from what I have read) and looks pretty good too, perhaps the swift would be a good bet? Also I just want to point something out here guys, just because I potentially would have a 'fast' car...

this. e.g. I don't need an i7 2600k with 16gb 2200mhz ram. But I have it, and I am pleased I have it. I don't need a dell u2711. I was quite content with my lil samsung syncmaster 20". But I dropped £600 on one, and I am glad I did. In theory decisions like these look like a waste...

well i am hoping it will have gone down by at least 1k so I should be ok. And I am pretty confident I won't crash it. I will even report back to this thread if I do (or if I don't) to prove it :p was that supposed to be an insult? I would top myself before I worked in that craphole lets say...

lulz the swift's 1.6 would be the smallest engine i would want tbh the 2.6k for the swift is a good price, and i like the fact you don't see them often (i have never seen one) whereas you always see fiesta st

That's what i though. but is another 1k stupid if it means i get the 197 cup? :p meh i'd be happy taking the fiesta tbh. I am pretty cautious driver. I just like having the power on tap. the cost of fuel doesn't really bother me too much. the miles i will be driving (likely less than 7k a...
