Hello all,

I will advise you go for a common car for maintenance purpose, second hand value and your pocket.

The guy is buying is very first car , I don't think you read that part grin so let me educate you young man grin

When buying your very first car , you want something cheap , manageable, something you can learn from before buying more expensive car ......

When buying ur first car, you will get into a little accident here and their. People will scratch your car and you will scratch theirs etc You might even forget to do the basic things as car owner .

So when u learn all these things it will prepare u better when u are ready to buy your dream car or whatever upgrade u can afford.

You dont need to 'educate' me, I know all these. It just appeared funny as you came up with the usual uberbolt recommendations.
