Looking to sell my corsa over the summer and pick up something a bit fun, different and stand out a bit. Must be under £2k, prob. only be doing 4,000 miles a year in it so reliability, safety etc. not huge issues. Must be relatively decent to insure, 20 with 3 years no claims.

So basically something fun and different. I've though about VW camper, VW beach buggy, nice old mini, beetle, vitara fatboy. Anyone got some more suggestions would be much appreciated, cheers.

oh and not that bothered about speed, i'll only end up crashing if I get something fast. Might stretch my budget up to £3k for something really special.

wouldn't get insurance on a 2.0 corsa, and it isn;t really that original or different. Any other ideas, cheers.

classic car insurance is so cheap its ridiculous. Can get insured on land rovers, beetles, minis etc. for 300-400quid, whilst my corsa 1.4 16v is costing me 1000!
