need 1st car recommendations !!

I recently turned 17 and got my Provisional and I'm gonna start learning soon.

All I ask is what car can I get for £800 (I have £3000 but the majority would be insurance I guess) which is good for a first car.


Thanks!

+rep for knowledgeable answers.

Well when i got my first car i used gocompare to search for cars, i obviously searched the low litre's such as saxo, 106 but couldnt seem to get a cheap quote just ended up getting £3000+ so i searched for celica's and focus's the celica came at 2600 and the focus was 1900 i believe, the focus was 1.6sport so its worth looking for everything really, don't go above 1.6 tho because you just wont be able to afford insurance. insurance is wierd for me though im sure

Bang.

Slap some steels and coilovers on it and your good to roll

The cheapest decent car you should get is a ka or corsa.

This is quite a nice one and only £700!

Well you're not going to get a 58 plate with 10k miles for 800 quid. If you're only spending that sort of money you can't have high expectations.

You can get much better cars than that for the same money. Less actually

I priced insurance on both of them cars just today, a 2004 Corsa was something like £7k insurance cheapest.

If you would spend a bit more on a car then I would suggest a Citroen C3, the insurance and tax are very cheap on it. The car is not a half bad price either!
