If he thinks he could handle it then go for it if he has the means, i know that personally i would show off and would crash it in the end, but thats me.
The price he is looking at for a car and insurance, you could get a really nice 1.4 or something like that for the same money.

If he's got the money then do it... If he's a sensible guy then he should be ok...

Going on your mums policy ain't a good idea
i went on moneysupermarket.com and put in my details and diamond gave me a quote 4 £1200 because the named driver doesnt av 2 be female only the policy holder also my mam has 6yrs no claims
Exactly what I was thinking. Anyone with basic maths skills knows that 17+172=189. f**king idiots!
pmsl, thats the funniest thing I've heard all day!! lol!
Anyways, it looks like we will be welcoming another rich mummys boy to the club.......

im a claims advisor and will say its true and if u crash ur fucked.
known as insurance fronting.
also a general comment for the thread - young people will need to take in running costs into consideration too aswell as the car and insurance. it costs considerably more to run a 1*2 that a 1.2

ive read it but if im on my mams insurance and i declare everything which i do the only thing i do which is wrong is i mite drive it slightly more than my mam even tho she uses it to go 2 work and i dont. bt nobody would ever no even if i crash the insurance company couldnt say i drive it more often than my mam theres no proof. as for the runnin costs i have a 2.0ltr focus now so the costs wont be much diferent
Age doesnt give you the ability to drive properly, driving does. so the lad might only be 17, but if hes done 50,000 miles this year then he may well have more experience than alot of 21/22 year olds on here who perhaps dont do the mileage and therefore dont have the experience.
on the money side, if he has it, why not spend it? I rarely drink and dont smoke, dont follow fashion or music much so i have loads of money to spend on cars
If your mate is experienced and mature enough to drive a fast car, then go for it. He's probably better off driving a fast car with good handling than trying to drive a slow car with poor handling fast.

amen to this.
But just think of the costs...he may have the cash to spend on insurance now, but that 12month 'honeymoon' period will come round all to soon, then he'll be stumping up another 3k or so for renewal, MOT's/Tax/Servicing and lets face it...its a renault, it will need parts, most likely an exhaust.
But of course, this has feck all to do with me and everyone else for that matter, i'm only posting cos i'm bord and its better than revision. Good luck to your mate. lol

pmsl at roy!
Such a lame comment lol
Surely a man of your superiority could have come up with something better then that?
I was at work and was just posting in between slurps of coffee. TBH I wasn't taking it too seriously
However, I believe I have a point - the day it becomes acceptable to communicate in some fucked up interpretation of the English language, is I day I...well I don't know but I'll do something that day
Alfa Mito 155TB
My MkII 172 went in March, I was 33 with full no claims bonus and full comp with legal cover with Direct Line used to cost me £420 a year in a bad area.
I just cannot imagine paying £4000 insurance for anything less than a Bugatti Veyron or a Ferrari Enzo...it is madness !!!!!
When I was 17, I drove crappy 1.0, 1.3 engined cars and I wrote one off....I don't think I missed out by doing so...being over 30 has it's advantages !!!!

Dont mean to be bad mate, but you must lead a pretty dull life if all you do is work to pay for your car.

i had a mk1 clio 1.2rn for just under a year which i crashed 3 times, once another new driver clipped my bk end on a roundabout his fault going way to fast not a scratch on the car, then i slid off the road twice round corners once into a white box thing and then into a field then found out the metal was showing through on the front tyres due to tracking being out lol - no marks on the car
got my current car mk2 ph2 clio1.2 dynamique just short of another year car slipped on oil or something and i went into a barrier managed to slow car down still knacked front bumper - engine subframe and wishbone
dropped a 2.0 in and its been in well almost 1 and a half years and no bother i find it safer, has the power to adjust in corners and pull me out of dodgy situations BUT if this was my first car god knows what ditch i would have been in, due to having almost 2 years previous experience it helped alot
advice - by a knacker for a year and put away as much money as you can - then get a 172, i'm not saying you will crash it but theres more of a risk for it and you'll lose out so run around in a knacker and learn how a car can behave when it goes wild then get a 172

Dont work JUST to pay for my cars, i just aint the type to go and spend £100 a weekend getting shitfaced or £200 on jeans that are out of fashion in 6 months ....thats why i have a house and two cars whereas most people my age get wankered each weekend, piss all over their expensive jeans down a side street and live with their mums...

JACKO CUP 172!

Clio 172 mk2
Completely agree...I waited and did my time behind the wheel of some real s**tters before I could get any car which was half decent.
Personally I'd never pay over a grand on insurance on any car
