Hi mate and welcome.
The great thing about this place is that it caters for young dudes like yourself and old farts like me :lol: :lol: :lol:
Good luck in finding a car.
At your age you would be better with an unmodified 1.4 for cheaper insurance.
Cheers Mark.

Thank's guy's! It will mainly be my brother using the 340 if we get one and insurance isn't too bad for him because he's 22 haha hopefully he'd put me on his insurance as a named driver or something :mrgreen: but he did say in a few year's when he can afford something better he'd give the car to me!

Hey! I'm 17 year old too and they're excellent first car for me. I have had a bit of trouble with my 360, but that's just my experience with this certain vehicle. Hopefully I can get it running properly again soon.

Apart from the current trouble I'm having (so go back a few weeks) it has been an awesome little car to drive :) love it. You definately will too :)
