It doesn't say how old he is.

My Dads first car was a 3 year old Porsche 924S, he didnt pass till he was 30 something though lol.

Suppose. I was thinking more along the lines of he's just acquired his full licence and regardless of age he would find it difficult to insure something with that power as insurance works on experience also. Not that clued up on insurance so maybe talking s**te lol.

My (soon to be) MD at work is 30 and hasn't passed his test yet, but will be buying a new BMW 135i as soon as he does. His insurance will be marginally less than I paid for my first car when I was 18.

Regardless, I don't give him long before he bins it.
 
  An orange one
The middle of the bonnet and roof were in rage spectra flair (TVR paint) and was £500 per litre lol

I remember seeing that thing in Max Power, Fast Car or Revs im sure!! Did it also have 17" league tantrums & a different front bumper before going all out on the flippy stuff & chromes?
 
  An orange one
It was rage bondi beach blue before the flippy paint, with an evo 6 boot spoiler made to fit the roof lol!

Same bumper but afterwards a fiat bravo abarth splitter was grafted onto the bottom when it went purple, the 17's were never on in a mag feature but it had 17" BOSS XTR, then 18" Mille Miglia's

LOL Colin. Remember this from the CWC days. Didn't you have one equally as modded after it too?

LOL, I wonder if good old CWC is still going? That Jayne that organised everything was a bit odd really, looked like a school teacher but organised cruises!

Nah after this I went straight to clio land with my 172 cup and then onto V6's
 
Earliest I have (but it started standard from an old guy).

That wont be a good move on his part. Don't get me wrong I don't know the bloke but that sounds like a classic "if I can afford to buy the car I have the skills to drive it!" kind of thing. I agree with you, won't take long that!
