so it won't be long till i have a years no claims discount and with that i think it'll be time to shop around for an upgrade to my litte 1.1 pug

any suggestions? i'm not looking to spend a lot of money, around the 1500-2000 mark, and not too much on the insurance

quicksilver. 1.6 16v Smile or 2.0 diesel.

quicksilver for mods and performance, and diesel for mpg and a bit quicker than the 1.1! Smile

Don't expect a massive discount with only one years no claim. I doubt you will notice the difference tbh.

without spending a lot that then leaves you with corsa/fiesta/clio all with basic performace, unless u go old school imo (Honda CRX) very fast beat evo's off the line! Smile

depends what your after/what you like? that was my budget after my 1.1, i bought a mk4 golf then that got wrote off, bought another mk4 was rubbish and not looked after by previous owner so sold it and went back to what i know, the 206, this time bought a 2 ltr hdi as a travel a longish distance for work, not bad for the price, still the odd problem but as there's ALOT of spare parts for them its always easy to repair

sit yourself on moneysupermarket and jusr keep banging quotes in for any car that takes your fancy. You may be surprised at some of the quotes. Dont assume that a fast car is expensive to ensure, you might be surprised. Some strange (relative) bargains out there.
This 206 IS going on a trackday despite it's every effort to stay at home in the garage!
