First Car- What car to Choose?

What would you choose outa these Cars to get for 1st Car,





2003 Ford Focus 1.6 Zetec


2003 Honda Civic 1.4i S


2001 Honda Civic 1.4i S


2001 Seat Leon TDi S 90hp


1999 Volkswagon Golf 1.9 TDi S


2003 Seat Ibiza 1.2S


2002 Seat Leon 1.9 TDi S


2003 Seat Leon 1.9 tdi 110 se



The Leon is the better of the cars listed here.





If it were my money the 2003 Leon 1.9tdi 110 would be top of the list. The golf is too old and the Mk4 hasn't got the best reputation although the diesels are good





Forget the Ibiza, its way underpowered.





Focus is a great all rounder but its nothing startling to look at and they dont take much abuse.





And as for the honda, yeah its a good car but the 1.9 Seat (VW engine) is a better car.





my choice would be:





1. Seat leon 1.9 tdi


2. Honda Civic


3. Ford Focus





Forget the rest.





Hope this helps




As it's a first car I would recommend something small and cheap to insure, so the Seat Ibiza 1.2 would be my choice. If size and insurance costs are not an issue, I would go for the Ford Focus 1.6 Zetec: it's a lovely car to drive and relatively good on fuel consumption. I've owned one for nearly a year and I'm very pleased with it.




ford would be cheaper to run,however focus 1.6 will be quite expensive to run and insure as a first car, unless u need a lot of space why not look at a Ford Fiesta or Ka they are great first cars. good luck.




Davy I think your best option would be to buy the autotrader and look for the cheapest automobile that will get you from A to B





This credit crunch isn't going to go away anytime soon remember save money, buy a sh*tter




The Golf's your best bet for reliability, comfort, residuals and quality.




Don't get a Ford. The Honda will outlast a ford.




I've driven a 2005 and a 2008 Focus and they are great on gas, just get a warranty.




Buy which car magazine.
