    Hey i was just wondering if somebody could recommend a car for me. i got a 2 year ban which will be up shortly but then i have the 3 years endorsement so insurance will be sky high.

    im looking for a mans car so no polos or similar car. dont mind civics or golfs or similar cars.
    can be between 1.3 to 1.6 petrol. can be 2 door.
    cheers! also could somebody recommend a insurance company who will take me on as well please! Thanks!

    Shop around for insurance first, then you'll know what cars are feasible.

    Thats exactly wot i was lookin for! i could just imagine the price of insurance never mind the price of the car itself.
    i could have got that car if i won the euromillions tonight.

    As someone already said. Have a look around and get some quotes before you decide. I checked the insurance on my bike last night for when I get me license back. wasnt half as bad as I thought it would be
