Hi everyone,

It's been a long long time since I've been on here, not been on since I bought the Fiesta *hides*

I'm looking to buy a new car in a month or two. I think it will probably be a Zetec S (don't hate me) but I'm just wondering what other options are out there? I had considered a Saxo VTS, but insurances is just over a grand, and ideally, I would like it to be under a grand.

When I get the car, I will probably be 20 with 1 YNCB.

Listen to this man.You will get a very high specced 328i sport for that kinda money.
Well worth it as they have near enough every gadget fitted.

Not the fastest things but once they get going they really do shift.
