  A Nerds Guide to Buying a Car

Introduction

Hello! I’m your advice leaflet to ‘Car of All Sorts. When you’re done with this leaflet, please give it to a friend!

 

A First Car

Okay, a first car is a cheap car, preferably small insurance and also friendly.
If your budget is, let’s say…..£300.00, then you’re working to second hand county! The cheapest makes are probably Fiat and Vauxhall, cars like the Punto and Astra will be perfect. They have average reliability and emissions and superb insurance deals.

 

Family Cars

Right then, family cars are probably the most popular cars of the streets of the world. A family car is most likely going to be either a 4x4, an estate or a people carrier.
(A car with seven seats) Let’s start with 4x4’s. If you live on a farm and do hard core off road, I would go for a Landrover which is big on everything! However if you have a few speed bumps on the way to work, then forget a 4x4 and buy an estate or people carrier. When you’re looking to buy one go to either the Germans or the Swedish. Trust me they’re good!

Text Box:  If you are like that listen carefully.(Not listen read!)
If you have £200,000 to blow, (eep!) you’re either going to buy a luxury 4 door saloon or a Super Car. If you want a luxury saloon then go German. (Again!!!) If you want a Super Car however go to the Italians and get a Ferrari!
