Why not save the £16k and spend it on a house or a flat?? You will enjoy that much more than a car, and actually may make some money in the process!!! If I had £16k in a trust fund, i wouldnt be spending it on cars. You will loose all of that money, no doubts in that. Having alloys is no where near as satisfying as your own place!

Sorry for confusing people, i assumed he suggested in his post above that he could spend that money on the car and thats where it was going to come from..... my bad :eek:

Still though Carl, why not wait til you have saved the money before you decide what you "will" do? I dont think you realise how much it costs to just live at the moment, and when you get a job you will start paying tax like the rest of us so dont think that £5.50 an hour will be all yours :)

You say you never borrow off your parents but what do you call that £100 they give you? You say its instead of them buying you games etc but your 17, they shouldnt be buying you bloody games at your age! You living with them and not paying board is enough :p

Oh and if i had 16k it would be pissed away on champagne, loads of stuff for my car, clothes and plenty of other sh!te aswell! lol
