Does look in mint conditon, been well looked after. Put that one in my watch list, not to buy but to see what it goes for :grin: Think it was Clipperjay who had posted before about looking for one???
-
Want :lipsrsealed:
-
Want one of those so bad, already on my watch list.
-
At least he's not selling 'due to new baby on the way'.
Look tidy :cool:
-
Looks like a good one, my other half has had a couple of these :)
-
the link isnt working for me and killing my internet, but i will say id much prefer the g40 supercharer off the polo than the polo itself, lol
-
Now who wants my MK5 then? Need it gone so I can go old school again...olop was my first VW...were the seats tartan in these? Can't remember?
-
It was me who wanted a G40, white doesn't float my boat, nice car though just not ticking the right boxes :smiley:
-
Ill have ya white rally then :grin:
-
Haaa that white Rallye is worth about 50K its an orignal WRC 1991
I wish I owned that one :wink:
-
if only it was a one litre :sad:
-
Are you the lad looking to get your first car?
Why don't you get a PUG 1.1 cheap as chips on insurance or go old skool and get a Polo GT?
-
polo coupe 1.0 cl is the cheapest thing on insurance at £990, polo is around £1200 so rather not spend as much as I need all the money I can get for my college course payment.
-
I'm sure Tescos was the lowest for new drivers?
I was thinking about the Mk1 polo with carb LOL :grin:
-
tesco want over £2000, i'm paying all upfront with admiral, just awaiting a cheque from the solicitors then the car hunt is on!
-
Ok I don't know the full story then?
-
my dad is getting some money from a family friend's will, he's lending me some money to get insured so I will have to work my socks off to get him paid back £1500 in 6 months whilst I go college also as I don't get any money from the government from going to college, don't see why people go college just for the £30 a week, I do it as I want to build my own company and be an electrician and have a trade for life, was looking at a bora but £2200 insurance and just really want something cheap to keep me going and to get me to work..
-
So you have no points and just passed @ 17?
-
no points, 18, had license since sept 2009, bought a mk3 1.4 se but insurance was over £3000 so sold to my dad, which he still owns
-
Really is it some messed up location postcode you live?
My wife passed four years ago and first insurance on a 204 Pug 1.1 was like £500??
£3K :shocked:
So why dont you get you old mans name you on a third party mini or what we used to do was buy a wreck not drivable, with insurance you can allways get and wait a year for a years no claims discount I would wait?
-
my area isn't the best, I live right by r-tech, the insurance is my policy with parents as named drivers, both have over 25+ years driving, 25+ years ncb, no incidents or points ever, most my friends pay well over £2000 for insurance, I was chuffed when I got a quote of £990, have had a quote of £12,000 but that was on a sierra cossie :grin:
don't forget that 17-25 year old insurance (especially male) has gone up alot recently and my dad won't let me go on his insurance incase I have an accident and it affects him.
-
I feel for you luke and other young drivers it seems that a car is defo a luxury these days than necessity?
How about a 2 stroke 125CC motor bike?
-
parents won't let me have a motorbike :grin:
the golf wasn't my first car, had a paper round when I was 14 (not going to lie, I still help my dad do it each week, £10 for a hours walk is great!), I bought a 97 p reg astra 1.6 s, paid £125 and sold next week for £325, even though the lad I sold it to got caught driving with no tax or mot or insurance and now it's a tin can :grin:
-
No shame earning for a living, you seem to be on the right track mate, I'm still shocked about the cost today for young drivers! When I got my first insurance quote back in 1990 it was £800 third party on a Fiesta 1.1 canary yellow LOL! They fetch good money now :smiley:
-
good thing about this polo coupe quote is I can go fully comp for £50 extra :grin:
-
Yeah silly not to mate which means you can at least run a decent condition one and not such a sh!tter :grin:
-
What a lovely motor looks mint any luck finding your polo Luke mate insurance is a wayne kerr when I fist passed £1050 third party f&f on a fiesta 1.2 zetec soon comes down though with ncb
-
hope it does go down, my only problem is that I go college and will have to find work on the days i don't just to pay for my car and have no money left for clothes or any other luxurys..
good thing is I've got a day of work next week, about 5 hours just walking around town handing out leaflets and I make £65
-
itll go down a lot after the first year mate. Those £1800 quotes after a year would get ya a 1.8t
-
3000 for a 1.8t for a year, don't want to go for a golf next though, i'd like a bora diesel but won't be financially viable
-
What 3k with 1 years nc plus well in your case two years experience. On my 1.8t it would of been £1300 with 1 years nc and two years licence held, but I had two years nc so it was £1250 saved £50, a pisstake!
