I haven't been on here for a couple of weeks due to moving house and not having the internet yet.. but I'm now without a car and need something asap! 
I'll only have about 1100ish to spend, depending on insurance. I have 1800 all together, and I'll be a named driver on my mums insurance as I'm 17 and have only been diving a few months. So something like a standard 1.6 will be around 700 to insure for me..
Any idea, links, and pics would be great cheers. I'm looking at a Golf but finding a 3dr one is a nightmare! I do need something asap so any help would be appreciated..

Just been offered a black 306 XS 3dr, 89k on the clocks with a years mot and 6 months tax for £1,000.. Lowered 40mm, rear tints.. nothing fancy. What do you reckon guys? Insurance will be £780 for me on that so just hits my £1800 budget.
