All depends on what you can afford to insure really, the problem i have being around the same age as you is that the cars are cheap enough but insurance is a few grand on something decent.

If you're happy with a diesel family saloon at 19 then go for it I guess.

£1300 for a 19 year old on a vrs is still really cheap, who was that with?

It will still be poop compared to the proper sports models. I wouldn't dream of remapping mine, i've been told by many people with having the 5 speed gearbox they can't take anywhere near as much torque as the 6 speed boxes.
