Your Dream Car (THATS in your reach)

[Hell_Unleashed]

Well jesus im kicking tyres right now for something along the affordable range...so far ones a really like are
88 mazda rx7 savanah turbo (top of the list so far)
89 MR2 non turbo (cheap as shit and not a bad car at all non turbo btw)
924 porsche (cheap as shit again and me and my mates where haveing a closerlookand i pointed at the back seat and went "cheak that out" and my mate answerd "thats the rear seat? shit euros must get really small" )
early 90s turbo supra (just plain kewl it was)
92 mr2 (not so cheap this time but newer and cooler looking)
928 (ahh the car was tops great interior,black and a v8!)
early 80s 911 interesting diffrent wondering about insurence....
300zx twin turbo (cool looking and would go like stink)
and a true contender on the list probly 2nd a silver 94 silvia turbo great car fits my slate almost perfectly....

The problem they guys in fyshwick (red light and car dealership area) know what sells and other then sex its domestics sadly huge prices i aint willing to spend (eg a manual 94 v8 VR commadore acclaim...15k GET REAL) thery dont fully fit my bill either...sadly again any opions or others worth looking at? my goal is 15,000 im on a good path of reaching it and i will consider any other options (except hondas)

Whats wrong with Hondas?

Wel i get my license in about 2 ish years..and my parents have saved up money for my first car, which looks to be around the price range of a 2nd hand Renault Clio sport. which would be awesome. Preferably in black.. so i can get white labels ( to look like the clio in the 2nd pic )

[Coventrysucks]

a 2nd hand Renault Clio sport.

Does that include insurance?

So far I have yet to find a quote for less than £1000, on anything, even a bloody 1.0 Corsa

I have decided that instead of paying huge ammounts to insure a crap car, I will spend a bit more on insurance and get something with a bit more pace.

However, being a student, I don't have any money...
However;
student for the next 3 years - No money
Job after that - Loads of money - TVR

I'm not on the line like most techs are. I'm only hourly because this is a temporary job and I am going to school for something else. I used to be enrolled in the ASSET Program, but got out when a previous dealership screwed me. Right now, I am looking for a job elsewhere, so I won't be a tech for much longer.

[Lagonda]

Alfa 147 1.6 Twin Spark (120bhp version)
Renault Mégane Coupé 1.6 16V
Renault Clio RS (if the taxes and insurance weren't that high for someone who just got his license)

Whats wrong with Hondas?

A) i dont like them and B) they dont make anything in my price range in the catigory that im after...

[Karrmann]

[Prius]

1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme

my ideal Trofeo.

my ideal cutlass.

the only diffrence is that I would have mine with the rear armrest, leather, the alloy wheels, and in Aquaris blue.

Yeah, I'm definitely with you on the whole Renault Clio thing, but I wanna go a little more retro and go for the mid-nineties Clio Williams. I've had a look around but being quite a limited edition there aren't a lot around. Plus, being such a notorious and fun little drivers car most of them have taken a serious thrashing for the past decade or so. 2nd hand purchase prices seem pretty reasonable, but I'm terrified at what (probably costly) problems might be lurking under the surface of such hard driven cars.

However, as your first car I wouldn't recommend going for something so expensive to insure. In my mind that's just throwing money away, because all insurance companies are having a field day with premiums for teenaged first time drivers. Especially anything with the word "sport" or "gti" included anywhere on the car like most hot hatches. You're best off just buying something cheap but reliable and building up a few years NCB before moving up to something a bit more frisky IMHO.
