insurance groups mean shit these days!

what have people your aged bought, and crashed, makes the difference.
i can insure my 57 Leon (2.0 Tfsi ) cheaper than a W vts. and a Jag XKR cheaper than them both.

Id look at a lexus IS200, its not going to set your hair on fire with its speed but looks ace and will be well built.

they're slow and look as if its had a stroke :homme:
apart from the e36 compact, i reckon a 1 series is the gayest bmw going!

what?? you madd? :afro:

uncomfy, not very well equipped as other cars for the same price, not masses of room for the size outside, there is lack of everything inside. slow, heavy, and not strong atall.

im not a bmw fan.
this is possible the reason why.

Yeah but when you go from a saxo to a bmw it would be so much more comfy and luxury, same goes for the room! slow? well it depends what one you get the 130i are like 260 bhp and 123d are like 210 bhp its only like the 116/118 are slow!

come on, you can't tell me you think they look good :fcuk: lol

Yeah! they are nice look so nice if they got the M kit!

I think 1er's are well smart whether it's the hatch or coupe.

Bottom spec obviously look a bit pap but speced up theyre really nice IMO.

ive always thought the coupe/convertible 1 series' were for people that couldnt afford the 3 series :homme:

they look quite similar just alot smaller and fatter, and come with a soft top roof.

The 1er IMO is the new 3er, the 3 series has got too big..

Ive had bad thaughts of taking finance out on a 1M and ditching all my other projects.

i only got one notification of replies lol . erm ok lets try a different way around this . give me ideas of cars which even though are high on insurance groups are low on insurance. i do prefer the e46 318 but insurance group is 11 or there about. as they are comfy . the 1 series is out of price range.
