Insurance Company have now decided that the car is a total loss - so its new car time.

I hate Norwich Union, and when I get a cheque off them, im gunna start a war with them. Cunts.



Need a new car, any suggestions please?

Going to look at a 1.2 16v Clio, but tempted towards another Corsa for a year. Dont want to spend that much tbh.

Its a sad day, but I am absolutly mad at Norwich Union.

Whats your budget?

If i were you I would get as new a car as possible with a low(ish) insurance group as the renwal will be a hard hit next year

The reasoning behind this is the fact whatever car you buy the insurance is going to go up and whether that be an old Corsa or a newer car so set yourself up for that.

I'd look at something similar to what you had before.

TBH, I think you're better off with money than having a car which you know has been repaired. It would never feel the same to you anyway.

That's pretty harsh Pow

I'd probably look at a Late 1.4 16v Sport - they're pretty good on insurance.

Sucks mate, only kicked in after you left last night

What about another diesel though ? Maybe a 1.5 Clio DCI ? Bit more poke than the 1.2 and insurance...is about the same :S
