    What do you guys think the best first time car would be? Considering cost / insurance / petrol / style.

    Your comments and suggestions will be much appreciated :)

    Well, I don't know your taste or anything, but surely focus it how good it is on gas :).

    Then go from there, are you a safe driver? Do you like pink?

    Pink would not be my main choice of colour and yes I am a a safe driver.

    I was thinking about a classic mini cooper or a newish fiat punto. As they both have reasonably small engines, cheap and wouldn't be too bad on insurance or petrol (gas)

    I think the best first car would be anything that runs. Even if its beaten to death. A lot of accidents happen with new drivers. Im going for a used crappy car myself. I have about $400 so far:-D

    I'm going to be getting a car for free, 2006 toyota camery. Toyotas and hondas have great gas millage. And they are average priced.
