Hello new here

[JackPearson]

Hi my names Jack and im from Bridlington, got the site off a car sticker, Tims, he has a red chinq with black alloys.

Anyway thing its a great site setup you have and im after either a Fiat Brava/Bravo 1.4

 

[dave]

welcome to the forum, dont get the 1.4 they not so good as the 1.2
wheres Bridlington,what car did you see with the sticker?

 

[Helz]

Hello and welcome And no, I agree with Dave you really want a 1.2, go check out the technical section down below for reasons why

 

[Alex]

Welcome...

Go to the bravo section and search around, and you'll soon realise that you don't want a 1.4.

welcome to the forum

What prices do the 2nd hand 1.2 brava/bravos start from? Im not wanting to spend over £1000 ideally.

The car i saw the sticker on is a Fiat cinq, its red and has sprayed black alloys and he's called Tim, he's on my forum and uses the name cinqtimmy so he may use the same name here?

 

[JackPearson]

Just been having a read round and the 1.4 does sound pretty bad.

Right then the Fiat Punto smaller engined versions 1.2 so am i right they come in the punto 60, 75, and a 80? Also is there punto sporting 1.2 which is the same engine as the punto 80?

 

[dave]

ah yep cinqtimmy is on here
the 1.2 go for a bit more than the 1.4s have you concidered the 1.6? you can pick them up for less than £1000, if not concider the punto. but avoid the 1.4 boos,

hello jack welcome to the forum

 

[JackPearson]

Thanks for all the welcomes by the way

Thing is with the 1.6 i cant really afford steep insurance prices what group is the 1.6? I would really like a bravo/brava, thats the car i've shortend it down to in the list i had, i could still probally be pushed into getting a punto though the 75bhp version.

welcome to the forum .

 

[JackPearson]

Right just found out Bravo 1.6 SX 3d is only a group 6 insurance which is only 1 group more over the 1.4 which is a group 5. So i think i've found the car to go for

 

[thefishdude]

dont forget 1.6 is tax. about 60-70 quid a year i think. not that much but thought i would mention it

 

[JackPearson]

The tax isnt really a problem, its insurance i've been worrying about because when your a young driver prices are so high.

Just got a quote on on, just over £1000 for third party fire and theft, not to bad to say ive got no years claims, just a case of shopping round really.
