Best of both worlds then.  Also if you have a 1300 as a daily you could possibly put the GTI on classic insurance as it won't be your main car and will cost a lot less.  Then you would end up with a daily hack and a weekend toy!

First car you'll write off anyway, I have no evidence for it but it's scientific fact. Buy a 1.3 and have done. You'll learn to go everywhere without braking, as it took you long enough to accelerate up to speed to lose it.


There should a law that anyone new to driving should be forced to have an old, sh!t banger. Makes them appreciate decent cars all the more.

no evidence but is a scientific fact?


yeaaaaaaah... about that

I suppose you are too young to remember Brass Eye

thread hijacked hahah, nah you guys are right i will do that, better driving a 1.3 around till im a decent driver, than driving a 1.8 round and wrapping myself around a pole and not being able to drive again at all

Not too worried about that, just wouldn't want another MK2 GTI going to waste.
