Hi guys,, hoping for some advice..
I'm a new driver and looking for a Japanese car preferably a 1.4 but don't mind making exceptions from a 1.1 - 1.5/1.6
Not sure on budget yet so open to ideas.. Cheers!

Welcome to the club! A Honda civic or similar would be good place to start. Even something like a Mitsubishi Colt. Both are very decent reliable cars.

Watch out on classic policy's - you don't build up no claims discounts. However you don't loose them either - balancing act!!
