Thanks buddy. While your at it, how about a 7 seater/people carrier for roughly around the same price and low mileage? (Not an option ive ruled out)

buying a car it`s not only a car. doesn`t matter auto or manual, diesel, petrol or other hybrid. think abou tax and insurance. personally, i`ve pug 508 1,6 ehdi auto with 37mpg on average in last 7k miles (in papers is 65,6mpg) but i`m night driver with heavy foot, my mate bought hyundai i40 1,7 diesel auto and has the same... :roll:

the best thing you can do is working for someone else on his/her car for a year. earn some money, get some experience and insurance discount for more experienced drivers after first year of having a badge and then think about being own boss. :idea:
