Evening all ;D [EDIT]Widening the search a bit, looking for a mini as well now  [/EDIT] My partner has her driving test in December, so for a Christmas present/Gift to say well done on passing her test (she will ;D) I am looking to buy her a VW Beetle or a Mini. I don't have a great deal of money to spend, and I would like it if it had tax and mot, even if it is only a little. I don't mind if it needs a little work, as long as it wont cost much and it is a runner. If anyone can help, I would be very grateful ;D Oh, I've tryed the usual places, eGay, VZi, but theres nothing. Cheers all  |

What kind of budget do you have, if you don't mind me being rude? Just in case I see anything |

If anyone has anything bigger, I don't mind. I know that she didnt really want anything too powerful. Saying that, 1.6 Beetles arn't that powerful are they? The insurance was about £20 more for a 1.6 than a 1.3. I think thats because I've got 3 points. Otherwise I don't think the price would change. |
