this is my first car, got it in fedruary planning to save up for insurance ready for when i turned 17. it was going well until i argued with a tractor on a motorbike, so in the 8 month i've been off work recovering a few parts might of been accidently ordered Smile
i should point out i have now passed my test but i'm not going to go get insurance until i get the frame off my leg. ( if your wondering google `taylor spatial frame`)
here's the car as i bought it:
 

next thing to go on was a set of 16" momo thunders:
 

then i ordered some 40mm and got it some new discs and pads:
 

 

 

 

after that my mudflaps went on, was reading that thread with the `206 master` on last night, when i started to laugh the mud flaps on his avatar caught my eye, gutted haha:
 

next things that came was a spoiler, got that sprayed up while a fella came round and tinted the windows. this is the outcome of my dads hard work while i watched from my wheelchair Very Happy :

Very tidy looking car,glad your enjoying it. Watch out for insurance though and also maybe get yourself ph2 boot strip and ph2 rear lights or an LED to go well with the red.
Crystal headlights or whatever headlights you like.

Admiral was cheapest for me,check out co-op insurance aswell.
The other alternative are those box things.

One of my mates had a taylor spatial frame, he had like a dent in his shin and we used it to hold the coins when we were playing chase the ace in the back of a mini bus, because we didn't have a pot Laughing

it seems to be admiral and elephant that are the cheapest, but i'm down as disabled with the dvla so hopefully when i'm not that will bring it down. what did you end up paying?
what was his frame for ? haha i dont have a dent :/ be a usefull thing to have! i took out half the top of my knee and 11cm of bone, along with aload of muscle. their one of them things that once you've heard of them you hear about them all the time, like when you get a car or bike, you realise how many there is.

I ended up paying 3500 for 1st year being 18 year old sucks donkeys and that was with admiral on multi car policy,my insurance dropped down to 1720.
Only 1720 because of my little incident i had which was mine and other driver fault but i cancelled the claim but still had to declare it.
But i still manage to keep my no claims,so i have 1 years no claims now.
Only thing i can say is try hassle down Admiral say you found somewhere cheaper by like 200-300 quid they may reduce your premium.

Definitely look at admiral website 1st to see if its cheaper than what confused.com shows and if its like 3200 or something,phone admiral say i got quote of 3200 on blah blah and they may reduce your premium to try win you into there policy.
