Went to the view a few cars yesterday on Fiance I can get 10k and no more and i looked at a CTR, as they had one there it was in silver and had tinted windows...
I started it up and it Felt lovely and was truely awesome to be inside of...My insurance want £2540 Fc on it which Tbh i dint think was Bad.. But everyone keeps sayin keep the corsa as you've spent ££££ on it..I am in too mine seriously..

Seriously a CTR is NOT worth paying 2.5k on insurance for!

As said, by paying for the car on finance you will end up paying over the odds for the car. If I was you I'd be saving up, If I can't afford something I generally don't bother! I can't comment on the insurance quote because my first year with the Impreza was about that!
I'm not overly impressed by them to be honest, they are pretty nippy and can look alright, but I'd be looking at Clio Cups and Seat Ibiza/Leon Cupras.

£2.5k
Mate, there are better things to waste your money on. Thats a stupid waste. Youll be bored of the CTR in a week and wonder why your paying that much to insure a breadvan as well as the finance on top!
It really isnt worth it. Anything over £1k is expensive IMO

2.5k i bought my car for 500quid and insurance was 300!!
Seriously mate thats a lot of money, can you not get a nice car for half that? (5k) theres a lot to choose from (Obviously not brand new but why buy a car to loose money as soon as you use it?)

If ou can easily aford it then why not, although £200 /month insurance is mad & you will be paying about 60-80 quid or so a month interest on the finance!

So 3 days work to pay for the car and insurance lol..
I didnt think they were that bad tbh..but ive posted this thread on other sites and people say i could get a much better car for the money...
Im 50/50 about it but half of me wants to Xe it..if it comes to it il just get another ncb behind me then think about lookin for another car.. and just keep the corsa

If you think £2500 isn't bad then you're surely making a few bucks dude so why not get a runaround and XE or LET the corsa, make it a slag

well these are all just opinions dude if you don't think you'll get bored with it then go ahead but I'd think long and hard before making a decision like that.
