“And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

Tax is 586 I think or around that (it may have gone up a little) - this is for anything registered prior to 2008 when they rejigged the tax.
Nowadays a newly regged one will be 2K/Year (Ouch!)
Insurance can be anywhere from €500> depending on who's driving and whatnot. You may be able to get comp insurance for €1K - try RSA. But i reckon few companies would insure a sports car for 23 year olds.
Give it a go though - they're great cars (if you don't mind the quirkiness) 0 -

The engine noise got me- it's pure unique.
I found i was making excuses to get out in her
Tbh (if you can afford one, as the petrol is expensive, and you have the time and patience for one) then the Rx-8 beats the passat hands down.
But if you want relibility and a 'good' car, i'd go with the passat (they generally don't caus problems as far as i know)0 -

thats a cracker 17 mpg:D there a lovely motor and i heard the need a lot of TLC im in 2 minds weather 2buy one im stuck between that and a vw passat 2005 1.9tdi.
Could you find to more different cars.
One is a sporty couple, with a great soundtrack but does indeed require enthusiast level loving, but an eye catcher none the less. The other is a Passat, relatively reliable, relatively decent looking, relatively comfortable, decent drive.. see the trend there?
Buy what the heart wants, you could be hit by a bus tomorrow*!
*Given the weather, the odds of that are indeed quite high tomorrow0 -
