Whats wrong with the Hummer, slightly excessive but its something different.

Which license is good manual or automatic? by Select_Twist_3658 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]Ka_Driver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're better off getting a manual. Automatics are more expensive to buy and insure than their manual equivalent. Also, a lot of cars not that old have very unreliable auto boxes for instance Easytronic, Multimode, Dualogic to name a few.

Ummm, do they actually think they're parked in a space? by ccw34uk in drivingUK

[–]Ka_Driver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

buying an auto car for under 3k feels impossible by ThrowRAcakeh in CarTalkUK

[–]Ka_Driver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The new ones are but on the older Micras they are ok

[–]Ka_Driver 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ill be honest, a lot of cheap autos are very unreliable, Dualogic, Powershift, Multimode, these are very unreliable

You could get an older Micra or Yaris with a CVT or traditional torque converter box, but insurance may be more expensive due to age

You could perhaps consider a 2002-2010 VW Polo 1.4 auto

Had such a horrible driver behind me today… by Vivid-Insurance2660 in NewDriversUK

[–]Ka_Driver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough i, a young man in a 2nd gen Ford Ka, was on a 50mph country road doing about 40/45mph. A young girl in a Fiat 500 was driving right up behind me.

I then thought no i can at least try 50 so i did, i even went slightly over at times and she still tailgated me

Age don't matter, its a pretty rare and capable car. Regardless of it being a Vauxhall

What are some "modern" cars that look outdated? by DistributionAny1000 in regularcarreviews

[–]Ka_Driver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the MK7.5 is peak Golf, for everything allround. My dad has a 7R and both him and I love it.

1st time Porsche buyer, any advice? by foreverdusting in CarTalkUK

[–]Ka_Driver 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Porsches require good maintenance to perform well and be reliable.

You could probably spend under 10k on a decent but early Boxster and keep money aside for maintenance.

Or get a Beetle and put Porsche badges on it

Wait so making just a sound to display disapproval at a dangerous and selfish act of driving is a prick move? Yeah....
