Well, alot of information to take in there!!

And guess what, it doesn't even matter now as the Pulsar is sold! (and no not to me )

But, for a 106 GTI it is an extra £120 on my insurance but I just can't go down that route. Already considered it and we don't need another one on here.

Looking for a 2.0 Zetec so will still need to check insurance on that as I don't think they'll take too kindly on me swapping the engine.

I'll be 18 at this point anyway and I passed my test on September 11th Al.

It looks like i'll just have to wait until i'm 21 for my dream car... :'(

jess dont matter what other people have got GTI's are cool cars and plenty fast for what ya need, just go for it sod what other people have got. Why not try a clio 172 mk1?

all ill say is dont jump the gun with a high powered vehicle as your driving skills are no way ready for a fast car, and be to fair ive seen how you drive and unless you want your parents to be arranging your funeral instead of your 18th dont go silly on your next car.

thats my advise from experiance and it aint nice.

I may drive a bit mad at times but I have never once crashed unlike a lot of the clowns on here.

Just cos I know how to handle my own car does not mean I am going to die whilst driving it.

I wouldn't drive the same in someone elses car, and I don't, 'cos I aint used to it and don't know what it can do.

Think i'm gunna have a look around, I don't want a car that everyone has. I want something different, like a Pulsar, obviously not one of them though. But just generally a rare car, that I like. And TBH i'm quite picky, could be difficult....

The only reason Pulsar GTI-Rs are rare is because they cost a fotune to run and a pig to live with unfortunately.

There aren't many decent (Jap, if that's your bag), affordable cars around tbh, not in a similar price and performance range to the Nissan anyway. S13's and 14's are relatively well-priced although every man and his dog wants one recently. It's the reason I got the Celica to be honest, but I really wouldn't recommend buying one unless you had some spare cash to throw at it lol!

quite rare an very quick EK9 ftw

Insurance??? They're like 4-6k, money I just don't have

I like though...

theres 1 in clowne and that might be for sale.

and jess iirc you have not been driving a year yet, so your driving experiance is very very little.

not trying to cause a argument but your hopes of new cars is a little more than u should be looking at.

They're nice but i'll only probably have 3k if the ka goes.

Been driving a year in 4 weeks not been passed a year like though.

I know what you're saying but there's people on here that have had 1.1's and rote them off weeks and sometimes days after passing their tests.

ok maybe a ek9 is out the question bmw 318 softtop not proper fast but are reliable
