Ali C Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 I have a Daihatsu Hijet Its just like those little bedford vans that look like a loaf of bread, except with 7 seats. Its only 1000cc and wont win any speed or handling tests (infact the fall over if you go too fast lol) but its practical and fuel efficient. Shame the head gasket went in mine after 6 days and ruined the engin (Y) I REALLY want a volvo now, I got converted after getting 5 people and 5 bikes into one (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urpedigreechumdog Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 (edited) Its a 2.0 Litre red top that is estimated to do 155, I thought your brother had a blazin chav nova with 'roy bacer' and shit like that plastered all over it? Or is that another brother who is kept secret? Edited November 15, 2005 by Urpedigreechumdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davetrials Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 your 18.... pass plus aint gona help you matey.... unless your loaded.... it will make it cheaper, but insurance for an 18yr old in your own name on a 1.6 will be a joke! a 1.6 16v vectra isnt that qucik really, get a small car with a smaller engine and it will still feel nippy! My mate lost 800quid off his insurance for a 1.2 corsa and hes 17. not to shabby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fairy elephants Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 first car was a 1.1L renault 5 campus. great little run around. certainly did me proud! got 4 bikes in that car, although i could only take me and one passenger with them. haha. After a years no-claims, i'm now able to insure myself on my R reg ford mondeo 1.8 16v zetec. its not particularly quick, but better than a 1L saxo or somthing similar :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

that NBR dude Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 guys.... you dont get what im saying.... my insurance halfed in my first year from 1000 to 500 with pass plus.... but the fac that your trying to insure a 1.6 means its still going to be MEGA high anyway, i dont know if motorbike no claims count or not.... anyone else in the know? :D Unfortunately No claims are non transferable from bike to car. Already tried that as I have 3 yrs NCB on the motorbike, but they said it doesnt count. It does bring it down slightly if you say you own a motorbike, but not a lot.

(Y) terrible cars. handle like shite, slow as you like (1.2 develops 44bhp if i remember correctly) engine is un-refined and rough (im referring to the old corsa B's, modern 1.2's and SXI seem better) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram Posted November 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 I thought your brother had a blazin chav nova with 'roy bacer' and shit like that plastered all over it? Or is that another brother who is kept secret? Chavs have saxos and 106's, that are all kitted out with crappy lexus lights and HUGE wheels, and don't forget the spoilers that make them look like a shopping trolley. Plus, they never ever do engine mods because they can't affored insurance. Oh and they have massive subs in their cars that wiegh about 5 stone and make the car slow as shit. Which he dosnt have lexus lights, big massive wheels, a huge spoiler or any subs in his car. From that i dont think he is a chav. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
