After my first car

Joe 90 · 18-08-2010, 22:35

At the grand old age of 24 I'm finally finding myself in need of a car.

I thought I had one in the bag when my mum said someone she worked with was selling a Fiesta with 50k on it for 1200, but when we phoned tonight they'd already sold it

So, I'm looking at a 1.8d Fiesta with 60k on it - http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classifi...ge/1?logcode=p

I'm hoping that its still available as I understand them to be great cars, but beyond that, and the obvious corsa alternative what do you think I should look out for? Only need it for a year or so, until the insurance companies finally look at me with some respect.
Got £1200ish so looking at these with that kind of list price in the hope I can get them for nearer 1k.
