I have an MR2 Turbo and a BMW 328i. I wouldn't recommend it if you're worried about the cost...

Corsa cost me loads to insure even after finding the one insurer who will give my NCB on that policy in conjunction with the main car, plus it wants taxing and needed money for MOT etc, not a cheap thing by any means.

I have got a Golf mk2 driver 5 door for my runaround, it cost me £400 its in good condition, I have lowered it and put some design 90's on it and its a great little car. Cheap to run too

Also got a Mk4 golf and that isnt soo cheap, things always going wrong with it and the stealers take the p.iss to fix it !
