I wanted something a bit nippy, but was still good on insurance after my accident. Had to be newish and had to be comfy. And it had to look good aswell.
Fiesta Zetec S MK6 btw.

I wanted something quick, economical and cheap to insure/tax.
looking back i wish i had left it a bit longer and saved a bit more as the car is too dull.

At the moment the Ibiza was becuase I missed the old one and the Clio wasn't the best car in the world!
Mito because I realllyyy liked it the first time I saw it, socred myself a new job and live at home so decided to treat myself to a new car

Needed something to learn to drive in after my first 2 corsa's, and this came up for the right price, cheap insurance, cheap to run etc and was abit different due to the colour, so bought it.
Has lasted me 3 years with no problems at all, and will be for sale in 2 months time

Had enough of the corsa after two years of owning. Started full time job and next project i was going to be on will require 200+ miles a week so decided needed it to be comfy as well as economical. So deicded to go for a Golf mk4 gt tdi 130.
Was close to the biza but i think VW swayed it as i plan to sell it on and think will be more wanted than the equivelants pd 130's.

My last car blew up so I needed a car asap. Saw it, liked it, bought it. Simple as that really.

wanted a quickish diesel my considerations were:
Megane 1.9 DCi = shit
Astra SRI CDTi 150 = too dear to insure
Astra 1.7 CDTI design = too slow
Golf 1.9 TDI = too dear too old too many miles
so I ended up with my 130bhp 1.9 JTD Punto, it had bluetooth, leather, climate and a glass roof so I snapped it up

It's big enough to carry 4 humans, 2 greyhounds and camping equipment. And it is also very good on motorways fuel wise.
