first year for me 22 was £1500 matt not too bad for my age

i was 1700 for the escos i had when i was 21, and i'm 1340
for my current 1 and i'm 23 now.

insurance wasn't a problem as long as i had the security the insurance company wanted fitted.

it's well worth the cash in my opinion.

I'm 29, got the car when I was 24. Started @ 17 with a Mk 1 turbo'd fiesta, Mk 2 turbo'd fiesta, a series 1, then series 2, and finally built a RST Cabby. Ford all the way its been. With my Escort it's been 5 1/2 yrs, probably too many ££££'s than I should of spent, but so so much fun, and can't see myself selling it.

23 years old, had this one for about 6 months now, sold my imperial blue escos and saff to fund this one, insurance was around £1163 fully comp. Not insured this one yet as it is still in the garage, looking in a sorry state!
