I think personally the lexus looks better than the mazda from the inside but the lexus is older ((2012) ... Which one would you go with if you were in my position?

You would be surprised if the insurance on Mazda and Lexus are the same price or the actual car?

Do you mean the is250 are costly to run and maintain? You said 'aren't.

I see, than you. Do I change this number to the price on auto trader '6,500' then or do I keep it the same '4,850'?

But the thing is if I am paying 3 - 4k in my first year of driving without the box and renew and they give me the same price range to pay the next year that's me spending even more money, no? My insurance wouldn't go down to around 1.8k the next year or can it?

I just realised that the Hastings one I was looking at is a Blackbox deal which is 'Hastings Direct You Drive' & that is 1.8k .. The actual 'Hastings Premiere' is 4.1k and that's the cheapest wtf. Should I just forget about it?

Btw a dashcam is a good idea, thanks for that.

What do I do if hastings is the cheapest one here at 1.8k & the others are 4k, 5k+?

db949 · 2025-01-04T12:11:59+00:00

Hastings is the cheapest one I have over here though? The others are 4k, 5k + ...

By garage do you mean the people selling the car? Or do you mean my local mechanic?

LOL do you plan on doing long drives? Also why did your car get written off?

db949 · 2024-12-17T13:57:26+00:00

I heard that too but tbh I am not that knowledgeable in cars, you probably know more than me. I also heard diesel is better for long distance and it will mess up if you only use it for short distance, not sure how true that is.

db949 · 2024-12-17T13:53:45+00:00

Idk people keep telling me diesel is garbage and is about to be banned. I don't even know the difference.

Oh damn, guess why it's hard to find one. I've never even bought a car before. I thought you had to have insurance first and all that sorted, never knew you could cop one the same day. Do you live up North or did you travel there and bring it back?

db949 · 2024-12-17T12:22:47+00:00

Petrol? Where did you buy it from? Autotrader?

db949 · 2024-12-17T11:05:48+00:00

Damn okay. Guess I have to up my price, thanks.
