blimey. I know everyone else has said it but 18k
Why not spend less on the car and more on insurance? Spend 8k on the car and get a Skyline R32 GTR

I would probably go for a 350z think for that money.
Or a brand new Astra VXR or Focus ST
bearing in mind he is only 19 wi 1 years no claims, he'l have to spend most of that on insurance

If most of te money goes on insurance you wont be getting it back at the end of the day where as you would selling a car. buy a run around and use the rest of a track car, you wont regret it.

If you dont want to spend a lot of money on insurance you wont be getting a performance car really,
If you want to spend 18k on a car that has cheep insurance get something like a new clio diesel for about 12k
being 19 you wont get cheep insurance thats if you can get it! I know a lad thats 25 and trying to get insurance on a nissan 350z and they wont do it unless he has 3 years ncb

Why is someone a dick for having a different personal preference to you, maybe you wouldnt spend that much on a car, maybe he would.
