I have a favourite in the list but I'm interested to see what everyone else would choose.

I've tried insurance quotes on all the cars listed! They are as follows:

- Peugeot 106 GTi - £810

- Citroen Saxo VTS - £1020

- Peugeot 206 Grand Tourisme - £1123

- Peugeot 306 GTi-6 - £1092

- VW Polo GTi - £911

I have thought of that but using say £500 out of my loan to pay for insurance seems a waste of money!
