Okay, Hi everyone, I'm new to these forums and this website, I've sort of drifted about drooling over cars for this past 4 or 5 months as its coming up to my sixteenth birthday and I would like to save up for my first car biggrin I am however a complete novice when it comes to all the paperwork and extra payments such as tax and insurance and the like but basically what I would like to ask you all is what in your opinions would be the ideal first car both for the typical 16 year old (something that dosent look like either A. a chav mobile or B. a bin with wheels)so yes, thanks for reading and taking the time to answer if you do smile!

btw, favourite cars at the minute would be between a 2011 Subaru WRX,e36 or a supra but hey lets be reasonable for a little guy like me hahasmile

Well that will be the starting point yes, but as soon as I can I would want a car of my own biggrin

You are 15 going on 16, would there really be a point in buying a car now? Granted, a project would be fun, but the fun will soon end once it comes to insuring it, as prices drastically change between now and over a years time...
I was going to start saving for a nice first car is what I mean and just wanted some decent suggestions smile
