    hi lads
    im lookin into buying a car, no more than a 1.2 litre engine such as a volkswagon polo,ford fiesta,fiat punto,peugot 206.citroen saxo,opel corsa,micra,seat ibiza etc.
    i would be hoping for a car between the age of 2000-2003

    what do you think is the most reliable and best drive of these cars cos i wouldnt be able to afford too much mechanic costs if theres any faults. anyone know of any pros and cons of each of these cars

    any advice would be greatly appreciated

    Bring some who knows about cars, to check over the whatever car you are thinking of buying.
    Best advise I can give you.

    Have a mechanic check it out on a ramp. I didn't for my first car and it turned out to be a lemon!
