Well im 16 and not long ago sold my 2.3 cos....

Cant wait not long till i start driving got about 6-7 months to go...

I was looking into buying a first car, a 1.8 190 but i doubt i'd be able to ensure it then i was looking a a BMW compact 1.6 but cant insure that so it has to be a 1.2 or 1.4...

I'm only really here for the Kitchens

Where in the country are you ?
I get my batteries for 35+vat. NW london

As far as 190 ownership goes the younger the better. Get the youth away from the nova and corsa crowd :)

welcome to the fold.

The best is to get a battery that needs no maintenance. They are very good. I am using one since three years and no problem at all!!! And I don't need to do anything to maintain it!!!
