    Hi guys,

    I'm a first time buyer, 19, just got my provisional. I'm looking for a cheapie to start me off, as I don't have the money for a more expensive car + insurance. It's only an A to B car, and it won't get much milleage so I really don't want to spend a lot of money on it.

    I've found this -
    http://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/Renault/Clio/1.2-16V/1029927/

    Would like some opinions. I'm looking for a 5 door, maximum 1.2, 16v if possible and a decent NCT length. This seems to match all of them. I had been looking at it last week online, and it was priced at 895, it's down to 750. Is that something to be concerned about? Or are they just trying to shift it?

    I'm going to look at the car tomorrow, I really have no idea what I should be looking for. Is there a guide online (or here) with big things and little things that should be checked? Should I bother haggling something off the price? or ask them to throw in some extras (what should they be)?

    I'm quite lost. Help!
