Yeah, clean licence, but held for less than a year. I find I need to think out the box. I never knew they did a 1.6 in the Ibiza and after strolling upon one on Autotrader , I looked into them and bought one. Rare as rocking horse poo!

Still seems a little excessive.
I agree with whittie though. Wait till you're a little older, and save those extra few grand to get an even better car in a while.
Either that, or fit a small shot of nitrous and don't tell the insurance company
