JoeD 24 Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Right guys I am currently learning to drive and decided that I do want a cheapish (£3k max) 4x4 thats a 1.3 L or below. I have looked at Jimny's and samurais, but just wondering if there are other choices aswell? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, Joe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JoeD 24 Posted April 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 I'm 19 and the cost for a 1.3 hardtop jimny is £5130 cheapest, but hey insuring a corsa is nearly as expensive to insure now so might aswell just save up a couple of hundred pounds more and pay for a 4x4. It's all a bloody joke but you have to pay for it nowadays if your young! Joe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

samearl14 11 Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 You'll find small 4x4s very expensive to insure especially the little suzys. Believe me i tried. Im 21 now but for my first truck when i was 18 i had a 2.8 fourtrak believe it or not this was wayy cheaper to insure. Think it cost me around the £800 mark. But obv that was 2 and a bit years ago. Insurance is a pain but got to be done sadly atb sam Quote Link to post Share on other sites
