hes not bothered about quickness. just something that looks alright. at first he was thinking of spending 7k on something a few years old with a small engine but they all look ridiculous. he wants to get 9.5k for his and ideally be able to buy a half decent motor + a years insurance for it with some left over with that budget

Twinge looks mint. Will depreciate quick though.

Jut get an older cheaper car for less than alf that and keep a few quid to fix it if it breaks.
