have you taken the 'dealer applied protection' offer? 

.

No, how come?

Yeah Nick, was planning on it but not until after the first year as I'll be on VW insurance, apparently they really don't like you fettling anything, so will enjoy its standardness for a year first.

cause TONA does it cheaper!!  

where are you based these days?

  They tried it but I said I'd rather get Guy to do it.   I'm based in Yeovil, hour south of Brizzle. PM me a deal.

It's worth noting, I pay £1100 insurance on my 8v GTi, I got a quote on the new Polo, which is actually quicker than what I am used to and it's £400! first year insurance is free too.

All servicing is included in the first 3 years and tax is only £95 instead of my current £240 odd I pay now. Not to mention things going wrong constantly and things still aren't fixed which bugs me.

Right now I feel the decision for a new car is my better option as almost guaranteed knowing my luck I would get a 'good' second hand car and I'd still end up paying a good few thousand sorting it out.

People will always moan about new cars but it's what's right for me right now. I may regret it, or I may love it but it's what I think is the right decision right now.

Let's not also forget that this is not the most practical man with a spanner, so this should be nice and easy motoring for at least 3 years.

sorry if its already been aswered, ive been bobling in and out of this thread so not read all replys and cant be arsed to go back through them all

In fairness Kirk, it doesn't matter how many people tell you buying a new car is this, that and the other.  Until you've bought and owned one yourself, one doesn't learn.  I'm still kind of glad I got a new car, the feel of a shiny new brum brum that's never been used before, I picked it up from the dealers with 11 miles on the clock.  It's nice to remember that I have owned a new one, when I'm rocking about in second hand bangers 

[JC]

but dont forget, someone like me will have put some of those 11 miles on the car ?
