Found a pair of Nice S2's for decent money, but the bank has delayed my loan application and now I have missed them. As my budget is so limited, I think I may have to abandon my search soon as all I seem to get are basket cases.

The S1s all seem a bit too old, as I need somthing I can use every day for commuting.

Unfortunately I need to take a loan to get one and as soon as I take the loan, then I start paying interest, so it wouldn't be too good to take a loan and wait 6 months before getting one. Also need to get a car ASAP as my Polo goes back at the end of the month.

So it's pretty much S or shopping trolly in the next 2 weeks.

Budget is under £6000 really, although I could stretch a tiny bit. Cheap as possible really. the ones I was looking at were £5500 is. Tehn it would be £1100 for insurance and £400 for alarm.

No guys, the bank is just screwing around with my account, as I'm trying to transfer my account to a new branch, due to bad service at my last one. Now it seems that as my personal advisor has left the rest of the staff at the new one are just as bad as at the last. So they won't authorise a loan until the transfer is through and they can't be bothered to get the transfer through anytime soon. Also as I am overdrawn for this month I can't transfer my account to a different bank.
