now that i would buy :cool:


main thing to remember, once youve decided what to get dont post all about it on this forum (go tell your friends in the real world :wink: :undecided:)

I'll stick a couple of pictures up.

Seen some KA's but as my GF has one no chance in buying one. :laugh:

why? :huh:

Why put pictures up? Or why not a KA? Or why is she my GF? :grin:

...why put pictures up?  im pretty sure every member of this forum knows what a banger clio/306 looks like

We all know what RX7s look like as well ;)

nice to see you can admit you have no will power,  :laugh:

buying ANY replacement car and modifying it is a WASTE of cash as your premium will be higher with any modification. Even for an old fcuker like me the polo premuim was loaded.

I know the ideal car for this situation, its been recommended by me. and you will have zero desire to mod it -  search function  :smiley:

Like I said, will be saving on wages, spare cash if I have it will go to some springs and maybe alloys. Insurance is fine. Still a thousand pound saving on insurance with a modded clio.

Maybe save the spare cash for the new insurance instead of w@nking it on a crappy car?

Just a thought...

I get the cheaper insurance,

 but this is a temporary car, bog standard = savings all round = more money to fettle golf. Why spend any cash modifying it

Or is that just me

Just you.

I'd prefer to live 8 months with a slightly more fun car. :grin:. Hopefully buying something next month.
