    Sure is. I have never found any other forum where you can post a question and then check back 10 minutes later to a screed of helpful suggestions. Usually you wait days and get one or two answers if you are lucky! I would be lost without it!

    I agree entirely. And I've found people are willing to go out of their way to help you - send parts, offer services etc.

Nearly 2 years, and I am still finding horrendous electrical bodges by previous owners.

    in all honesty, mine has been pretty faultless, but the dangerous connections are just scary.

Got all excited when I started to get insurance quotes, only to see I put my age in wrong. Now they've doubled and I can't afford it.

    More than likely not, it's £1200 for me and that's at 20 with o NCB and an accident within 12 months.
    It's cheaper if you get a rarer car

    Best off getting a 6n2 polo, horrifically cheap to buy these days and go on forever! Not to mention cheap to fix and insure
