Right now, it depends what age group you are and what purpose you want it for, maybe for people age 17 to 21 would own a hot hatch to modify like, citron saxo, pug 106, vauxhall corsa or nova, ectr. Right ok, now once you`ve got your 3 yrs no claims you can go onto bigger and powerful cars, if you want to! maybe in your twenties you would like a convertable or a saloon, maybe bmw, mercedes or audi, but when your in your thirtys maybe an estate or saloon may be better if your family is growing, or work. as you get older, maybe something more luxurius like a bmw, mercedes peugeot 407 audi or volkswagon. but as you get older to 60 your car insurence will no doubt go up. so maybe a really economic car like a honda or peugeot 1007. thanks
