Do you know what you want, or is part of the reason, the fact that you don't know what car you want?

Well what do you want from a potential new car?
Is insurance a problem on bigger engines?
Do you like german/jap etc.? Any preferences...
Looking for something reliable OR fun???

Insurance really isn't much of a problem, but don't want to go silly and spend over £150 a month.
Not sure where from either, germany, japan... anywhere really?
No preferences on what to actually get, and im looking for something more reliable than fun, but looks good?

Look for a good condition Polo G40. Rare, great fun and tuneable 
Can't have mine though, it's pretty much as good as sold 
BUT they're great little cars, and mine's been very reliable

pffft, electric windows are for lazy people. For £2200 you'd get a very good condition G40, and you'd suprise quite a few cars in your 1.3
