Think the time has come for me to get a newer car. I love my corsa to bits as its my first car and in all fairness it hasnt done me badly for 500 Notes. But however its 15 years old and has a list the length of my arm on what needs doing to it.
I was going to get a small loan to buy a new car (being that my insurance had been 250 a month havent had much chance to save) but my ins company wanted an extra 80 a month to insure the exact same as mine but a facelift (my car is a pre-facelift 1.4 sport) for a facelift style 1 litre it was only £6 a month cheaper than to insure my sport
I only wanted a new car as generally speaking it would be in allround better nick and have more life left in it.
Bit unsure what to do i onl really want a loan to get a car if the car is half decent. what do you guys think.

Swift Cover are going ve charge me more for a 1.4 Fiesta which is nothing special, compared to my Sporting Punto. Figure that one out.

They factor in more than just the engine size believe it or not.
Does seem a bit daft to be paying £250 nevermind £300.
