Hi guys, names Daniel, im 23 from the north east of the UK.

Got my first ever car on Saturday (27th april) and been driving it since I got the insurance sorted on monday (29th).

Renault Clio 1.2 Extreme 16V. - 2002

Ok, so its not the perfect car, was 2nd hand and does have a few issues and stuff, but I saw it on the forecourt of a local garage and fell in love with it lol, perfect first car for me.

I learnt in a diesel and the clio's petrol so did stall it quite a bit the first 2 days haha, but finally getting used to it now and loving driving about in it.

Will try and get a couple of pics up shortly

Thanks for the welcome guys, £12 doesn't seem too much to pay so now a club member .

 

[ScottL]

The £12 is well worth it mate, everyones always on hand to help which is the reason i renew every year

its the meetups and stuff that intrigue me the most, other than upgrading my stereo when i have enough cash I cant see me changing much on my car or anything for that matter, but the meetups sound fun.

music is a big part of my life though, so a kick ass sony system (im what people tend to call a sony fanboi, ps3, xperia, hi-fi, camera, all made by sony lol.) will be first thing after i've saved for tax/mot/insurance for next year as well as spare cash set aside for any repairs.
