As some of you know i passed my test recently so i'm looking for cars....i've realised that MK1/MK2 Fiesta's are gonna be too out of my budget to find a decent one and no matter how much overtime i do i wont be able to afford one for ages, so i'm thinking of just getting a shitty little cheap thing as a run about to build a years NCB then get a better car after that?
However i'm just worried i'll regret it if it cant be modified/isnt an old ford...hmmm

What are your opinions on it?

(Meilack, Sam, Terry and Danny i'm preparing for your abuse!!)

Cousin just insured a mega cheap 1.25 Mk4 Fiesta, and he's just turned 18 with 0 NCB.

He's opted for the tracker unit, so as long as you drive like a granny in your first year you will be fine!
