Im looking to get a new car very soon. Will be using it for work aswell so must be economical but still have a bit of grunt. Looking for the first time at a diesel! I drove a Seat Leon TDI and loved it. The best value TDI ive seen is the Skoda VRS. Yes it is a Skoda but cheaper to insure, run...

I found a local body shop, and a web page to get the paint from the code on the car pannels. Going to see how much it will set me back.

Being a young driver myself I dont believe putting power restrictions on us would help. As already said you can drive a 1.1l like a plank and kill people. Unless your dad has business fleet insurence the chance of getting much past a 1.4 are slim. I think a better option would be to educate...

Well guys thanks for the advice. Ive looked at every option and Im going to stick with my clio for another year. Get my no claims and save a bit more cash. Then see what I can get insured on. They need to sort out the amount young drivers pay for it!

Im thinking of getting a body kit for my Mk II clio. Just wondering the best way to match the colour to the existing body. Can anyone give me some advice? Good spray shops? DIY? Cheers,

Ive been looking at cars and im going for a new Corsa Sxi. Mite not be what I rele want but comes with sports pack, 17" alloys wraped in low profile rubber, S.S back box and there going to fit some of the factory tuning parts to it. Like the front grill etc. Getting the either the 1.4 16v or the...

I have a 03 clio 1.2 16v. I pay £1400 a year fully comp £300 excess. That on my dads policy with my own no claims. Any ideas for getting it down? Would love to go buy a nice car but the insurance is holding me back.

I would never buy a PT cruiser. I remember when I was young my mates mum had one. We never let it go.

There are nice cars but im only 18 so need something thats friendly to insure. Dont want to pay more than around 2500 a year. Ive looked at a Skoda VRS TDI.

I started off with a 1.1l fiesta. Wrote that off pretty quick. Had to scrap it instead of claiming. I then bought a Mk2 Clio 1.2 16v. Ive moved the air box to the lower front grill and installed a carbon fiber air intake, sports cat and back box. It has decent ICE aswell. Its a nice car but...

My MK3 Fiesta 1.1 LX is bog standard on the outside. I want to make it look a bit nicer. Can anyone help me with a list of things I could do my self and where I could find parts. Will bumpers etc fit from other models of this range e.g. SI. Cheers,

I though of that. Where can I find a breakers yard in the south east? Also should I ring them before to see if they have any fiestas in. Will parts from say the 1.8 Xr3i Model fit mine? I'm looking to get the bumpers too.

I need some cheap alloys for my 95 Fiesta. I don't want to spend allot as the car is worth much. Realy don't fancy shelling out £450 for alloys il end up curbing. Want non brand ones that look smart or second hand. Someone please help! cheers

I have a mkIII fiesta, N reg. Ive owned it for a few weeks and want to add some better ICE, because the performance isnt great being first car. I haven't taken the plastic guards off yet but sure it has 2x 4"x6" in front doors and 2x 5" speakers over rear wheel arches. I want to replace...

How about a Scooby or Mitsubishi Evo. Great performance and all saloons. Should be no problem to get in and out of. If not maybe a 4x4?
