Basically i'm looking to replace my Corsa Sport now i've got another years no claims and got myself a better job!

Criteria:
Hot hatch size
T reg or newer
Fairly insurance friendly, i'm 20 with 2 years NCB
Upto £6000-£7000 to buy

Been looking at Ibiza FR 130 tdi's so anything like that really, preferably not something like a Saxo or 106, thanks

Mk5 Golf GT, Fabia VRS, CTR etc. Loads of good cars in that bracket.

My mate has an Ibiza FR (cupra look a like) for sale. Stage 2. 217bhp. Real sleeper at a good price!

Yeah i've been looking at all of these so far, MK5 Golf is £600 more to insure for essentially the same car as the Ibiza, not too keen on the Fabia but still an option. CTR and Clio seem too much on insurance unfortunately
