Rob, you can't afford a Lupo GTi, yest you mention insuring a Civic Type-R above!!
Why not sift through Parkers, see what cars you can sensibly afford to buy and insure, then come back with a short list?

Fabia vRS was only realesed in 2003 so yes they are still very pricey, I was looking at them not too long ago 
They are the 130PD TDI engine

I bought and insured my 1.6 at 17 all mods declared 
I'm in the same boat as Rob but I will be 20 with 3 years NCB (touch wood) when I come to get a new car early next year I think.....been looking at Leon Cupra and similar cars.

Clio 172; can get a decent phase 1 for £3500, insurance will be a little more but would be cheaper byuing the car
