Right im going to be 17 soon and starting my lessons and really want to get a car and get insured on it so that i can get used to it.. start the styling a little and build up my no claims bonus!

Anyone know of any cheap cars, that are quite stylish, can be bought for cheap, and would be cheapish on insurance!?!?!

I'm thinking of either, a 106, corsa B, punto, or maybe push comes to shove a nova...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

106 clunky gearbox ( only worth getting a GTI or any rally)

Punto will brake once a week

corsa b- never had any probs with mine

106 quiksilver is a good first car. Looks the same as the Gti but minus the insurance and nice seats

well obviously . But then again having a quick first car is a bad idea anyhow.
