It is one of a few car options I am considering at the moment, the Mig is to big and poor on fuel for work in the long run..... :( :(  But I do like the idea of being different from the norm in my work..... :y

You got a bargain there, I paid £3300 for my son for TPF&T on a 2002 1.1 Saxo with no mods, living in a low crime area and parked on driveway.

I had to buy my own car, as did my siblings, I think everyone should.

Additionally, I wasn't allowed a loan, so had to save up any buy the cheapest reliable runner I could find (my lovely Triumph Acclaim - and yes, I did like it)

I see a soft mother heart  ;D ;D :y

I'm with TheBoy and Mr DTM in that subject..

Driving a car may have very serious consequences so imo its better to wait till they become mature and buy with their self money..

but.. times are changing and may be my ideas are old like me ;D :-/
