Congrats on passing, dont go mad though, i know you will hear this from everyone, but dont be trying to show off.
You may think, like i did back in April when i passed, that your king of the road, and your the best driver ever. Trust me your not, i thought i was an ace driver, and 1 month after passing, i ploughed it into a wall due to speeding, and thinking i knew what i was doing.
I calmed down loads, and am a much better driver now.
Just take it steady and enjoy it

not likely here but remind me not to drive around prescot the day you get on the road.. i do drive to liverpool couple of times a week though  im only messing with you.. i crashed 2 months after i got on the road but i wasnt showing off or anytyhing, it was pissing down with rain and i just didnt brake enough and ended up hitting a car at 10mph, he claimed whiplash and the damage was not visible on his car apart from a scuff that could be polished out, apparently i bent the floor in his boot where his spare wheel was,, i doubt that because i only cracked my head light and a bit of the bumper. but anyways go easy on the roads especialy in the winter, find a reliable car that will last you untill your ready for somthing cooler

Just get a Corsa then? Don't let wheel BEARINGS (not berrins) put you off, cheap easy job.

Cant be arsed with what? To be honest for £900 you're not going to get a brand new car so don't expect things not to go wrong. But just get one and look after it and it will look after you.

Wheel BEARINGS should'nt be too much, maybe £40-£50 a side. Not too sure, depends how much the garage charges.

Well thats cheap, the part will probably be around £15 each and allow 1-1.5 hours worth of time to fit them. So i'd say at a garage it'd be around £70+vat.

Make sure its the bearings that need doing before you do the job, might be something more serious.
You can't expect to buy a 10 year old car and it be perfect though.

More money though and S reg is only 1998, still 8 years old.
How much is the N reg up for and where is it? Might go and have a nose if you're thinking about it.
