What Car Should I Buy?

What about a Ford Focus? I drove one of them here and it did the job ok. Opel? I'm so out of touch with motorised transport.. 'cept when I'm bouncing off someone's bonnet..

Loads of Audi A4s available http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/Cars-/9801/i.html?_nkw=audi+a4&_catref=1&_fln=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m282

What are they like?

Thats a Fiat FSM 127 not a 500

126 not 127.

Never get a bike in there.

T'was a joke.

The bike will obviously go on the roof.

What, it'll get cold or maybe nicked.

get summat cheap, mel will dent it it as will others. When breaks sell and buy another.

Get a few insurance quotes to see prices.

All I seem to be able to find are some weird talking meercats...

A4 Avant. Job done.

True dat but you get stung after the initial purchase

Get a small modern common rail diesel for high MPG

Make it one that falls into a low tax group

Make it one that falls into a low insurance group

Make it a tiny one so you can park it easier

Make it one that has cheap spares

Also reliable, stylish desirable etc

Simples

Punto with a 1.3 JTD engine maybe?

Avant, looks like someone sat on the back (not me, dicks).

I could never drive something called a Punto and 1.3L? I come from V8 land, even my old 4 cyl Magna was 2.6L but I understand where you're going with the cheap groups and stuff.
Is there a good site/list for this stuff or do you have to go through a bunch of insurance quote bullshit?

In Oz, for example, the RACV would print out a list of running costs for common cars in each group (small, med, large, sports, 4x4, etc) so you could get a good idea of total costs per km or per year

BUY A MOTHERFUCKING PICK UP.

yeah.

also you have to go through epic fucking insurance quotes.
pain in the balls it is too.

You mean a UTE!!!!!

Can you even get them here?

of course you fucking can.

Now get one.

Hahaha Falcon ute listed under Classic Cars in ebay!!!

I want a ute/pickup so badly.....


but you want an aussie ute, and I'd rather have a yank pick up....
When I'm older I'm getting a truck- something so fucking stupid that it takes 2 spaces...

^hell fuck yeah....
buy it.
look at all that bike space!

That kind of stuff looks great (my uncle builds hotrods) but isn't practical. I need practical. I want the bikes enclosed. Hatch or Station Wagon (Estate huck too!) for me.

Fiat Panda + 4K

1+

the Fiat Panda was the first choice when I was looking for a car.

fortunately, managed to not need a car.

[serious advice]
I'd say punto, not panda.
Or the Seat Leon, which is awesome to drive.
Or be dull as fuck and get a golf....but they are fucking great cars.
(especially the tdi bluemotion)

Or a Sirocco (a car I particularly love)

[/serious advice]

I bet there is a site but i dont know bout it.
I think the meerkats are there to cushion the blow

I think you could buy a v8 over here for pennies now
Good old british jag or even a rolls royce
But it would suck in many ways

Ah fuck it get a XB GT Falcon Hardtop like mad max

You want a nice porsche 928 and I have one if the guy makes up his mind not to buy)......or a nice MGF
