No, circumstances will become much tighter at home as im due to sell the house etc soon. Im looking to get something a tad newer like a punto or something similar (poss non fiat).
I just been looking - depending on how much you want to spend on grande they are doing pay nothing till 2009 also with the bravo 0% no deposit over three years. If I didnt have a mortgage to pay for then i would go for a new bravo tomorrow!!!

Theory is ok but i want to tie myself back into a mortgage ASAP so its not really an option to have a finance on my head Big Black Stilo has suggested that maybe i look at Stilo aswell as Punto. Its going to be horrible being back in a standard car

Buy a non standard car then!
going from a coupe back to a bravo wasnt as bad as i thought it was going to be dropping 160bhp. The first bravo was modded and the coupe was modded my bravo is standard, i just cant afford to do anything to it and my hearts not in it tbh.
There are a few mkII puntos about that are as cheap as anything

Im pretty sure that the last time i checked Non Standard cars cost more to run and insure
standard 1.2 stilos are cheap insurance!

do lots of shopping around get insurance quotes. There isnt anything wrong with getting a standard car with potential and then modding it gently to what you want
I have been looking around. I could get a brand new audi TT insured for £35000 and the insurance would be £600
Not that i can afford anywhere near that

i've just had a quick look on autotrader and the most expensive mk1 sei's up at £1100 (although they were atarting from about £800) I'd offer yours at about £1500-£1700 but be willing to take £1200 or £999 for a quick sale.
