What car to buy?

[Nathan1305]

Right just got a tax rebate of £1230 so probably looking to get a new car while I can. I'm thinking of going for a HDi.

What would you recommend?

[Matt-Rallye]

Hdi dturbo tidy one for around 1000 spend couple hundred on stage etc and enjoy a comfy reliable cruiser

[Toms306]

Just buy mine, has all the spec you'd want

[Niall]

Gti. Always a gti except for maybe a rallye

[bigcheez2k3]

Buy the GTID 5 or whatever it's called.

I would love to but I'm not sure how I will get to yours haha

That would be awesome but my insurance company will hate me haha

You already have a car right?

Pay off debt.

I don't have any dept I'm 19 so don't really have any of that

GTi's aren't that bad on insurance, mine was marginally more than a HDi to insure

What's the fuel like oh them? My 1.4 seems to use a lot

Try a quote on one theyre not bad at all too insure.

[Midnightclub]

Tbh I'd have thought it wouldn't be too much worse on fuel than the 1.4, because you use less throttle getting around due to the higher torque/capacity etc..

I averaged about 25-30mpg driving one daily, but on the motorway they aren't bad on fuel, some see 40+mpg.. really depends on your driving style and whether it's largely town based etc..

I'd recommend a HDI, reasonable power with good economy.. you'll love it compared to your 1.4 I can assure you! Couldn't you technically fly from Brizzle to Stansted? Tom might even pick you up from there...

Hmm true or even a train I think a HDI will be better insurance than a GTi6 is £450 a month for me! A HDI is only £240 which is only £20 more than what I'm paying now!

There's your answer! Toms is an ideal example for you IMO as it's had anything it needs done to it thats past usual DIY

I'll message him

[welshpug]

if you think a 1360 306 uses a lot of fuel, you're in for a while world of pain when you buy a gti6

Yeah I'm gonna go for a HDI if Tom replies I may have his off him

[puglove]

I love the way welsh pug just assumes you have debts!! LOL


But anyway HOW MUCH???? £220 a month for a 1.4 what does it cost you a year??? That is a fecking ra*e. I suppose its the joys of getting old you dont realise how much younger people a beimg taken for a ride. If it makes you feel any better i insure a gti6 upto 260bhp for £40 a month


Go hdi mate well worth for an extra £20
