I turn 17 at the beginning of the summer and I am looking for my first motor. I need advice on what I can realistically get. I have heard so many different opinions and just need someone that knows what they are talking about to help.

I have around £1500 - £2K to spend and probability going on parents policy. Can afford about £800 a year insurance. Also got £600 to modify car sensibly. No body kits, Lexus lights etc.

I really don't want a 1.1 and looking to get 1.6. Most of my mates are coming up to buying second car at 18 so would like something that I wont get laughed at in.

I really like the Saxo vtr/vts but need some help on what I can get and prices. what Modifications I can do.

If someone could help me out I would appreciate it!

Cheers,
