    Don’t discount 1.4s.

    the difference in insurance is not as much as the difference in car price. Everyone assumes you need a small one for first car.

    I bought Liv a 2006 1.4 for less than 2.5k (3 years ago)

    Plenty of cheap 1.2 and 1.4 Polos on ebay. My 1.4 is a 2003 and a good all round daily driver, cheap to insure, cheap to run and a good strong car with lots of safety features.

    I have a nice black 65 plate 1.2 TSI Polo, £20 pa road tax, cheap to insure, full service history, 71k miles 50+ mpg, has wanted for nothing in it's life, even regular brake fluid changes and four matching decent brand tyres, but it might be more than your planned budget. I was going to trade it in, but a private sale on here should be equally hassle free, I would have hoped. They are lovely cars, way better than the previous generation. Just a thought?

    Probably too new as first car. He is going to bend it like they all do. I’ll let him bend ah old one it’s cheaper.
    Thank you

    No problems, at 6 years old in Jan, it's not really that new, tho certainly newer than most of my previous daily beaters.

    We’ve just traded up the eldest lad’s 14 reg polo for a 17 reg beetle, or is it really a golf with curves? Both good cars

    Don't laugh o_O but a friend was selling a Diahatsu sirion, bought it cheap for daughter's first car. Insurance about £800 parts cheap as and hardly ever broke.
