Welcome, being honest insurance will kill you, just about to pay mine tomorrow for the first time, and they want £2300 annually off me for a Mk1 golf :@
Works out at a £467 deposit and £197 a month :'(

Good luck!

I know
i have been saving up since i was like 13-14
but i bought a 50 cc when i was 16
when i sell that i should make a little money back of it

yeah you should a mk2 golf shouldnt set you back loads
but be prepared for insurance thats all im saying, also learning to drive drains your money too!!

them rs50's are fuckin fast too...u de restricted it?

i used to have a Rcr 50 with racing exhaust and smaller front sprocket...that thing flew!!!!!

Its only got a collar in the exhaust
i like speed
i had to put new fairing on the front and a new bubble shield
i went into a wall at the beach in llanddona and broke my ankle in three places
was a fun party
Rode it home the next day
my ankle was swollen bigger than my neck
changing gear was a Nightmare as you probably know
Was my gear changing ankle that got screwed.
ended up in third all the way lol.

I shouldnt be too bad learning to drive
My mums taught people to drive and they all passed first time
she promised me since i was little shed teach me
ive allready got my provisional
i just need to get the theory done and then find out about the actual test
Do i need to go for like official lessons ? or can i be taught by my parents?

id just use your parents as much as u can, then later on get a couple of lessons an he will let you know about minor things that the examiner is looking for, cus the goalposts are always moved.

Mullally - no waay lol. What's brought you onto here? Golf Mk2, nice choice man. Didn't you have a Mk3 about a year ago? Thought that was for you?

And use your parents as much as you can. Parc Menai etc, on a sundays when it's quiet. Gwion's already spent a mere £400 on lessons!...

And as for insurance, get on your parents policy man! Jeeesus - they'll rape you with any of those cars you've listed above. I'm still on Dads, working out at £40 a month.

Welcome

You must be physically and mentally insane to pay £2600 mate! I'd NEVER pay that, I started out at £667 on my dad's name. £2600 makes no sense at all...

agreed^^^^

ridiculous price tbh

but its your money i suppose, but you could get a far better car for the same amount on insurance and even a lot less

anyway back on topic


welcome!!

Yeah i did have that Mk3
But it was a piece of S**t
it caught on fire because the eletrics randomly burnt out
and the insurance company said that eletrical fires didnt count aparently
that was on my dads policy but i was only 15
so i was trying to make it beter
but money was an issue again
it got scrapped like march
that was a sad day
And i got on here because a mate from College was allready on here and told me that if i was looking for a golf this was the place to go
his names Josh
Mk3 i think his user is Spanky ?
