Cheers guys. I live about 25 minutes away from Manchester near Blackburn. As for the meet i won't be able to make it cos i'm in Newcastle that weekend, having it large with me mates on a full weekend bender, showing the locals how to have a good time. But i will make it to one of the next meets as i am really interested in coming and meeting you guys.

Well i won't be buying a Brand new one but it will be quite close probably a couple of years old. I'm only young and trying to spend my hard earned money wisely. Can't think of anything more wise to spend it on. Looking at probably around a X Reg or something around that age. Will have to see what Mr Bank Manager says.

cheers guys that a great help sounds like i will be going for the SE model as its sounds like a good all rounder and has everything i need. Been looking on the net and seen some nice ones. Will have to get some insurance quotes and see how much it would cost to buy one, me astra is probably worth about £2500 if i sold it private so will probably have to save about five for a hefty deposit. Will be a few months yet but the dream will soon turn into reality. i will keep you all posted as to my progress. Thanks again Carl

hi peeps my name is carl and i have just registered. I am currently saving every spare penny to buy one of the Fab Lexus IS 200 models. However i have a problem, i'm not too clued up when it comes to all the different models, so some advice would be nice from ya'll which is the best. Preferably i would like leather interior, heated seats, basically all the mod cons. Also what about insurance, are they quite cheap to insure, what insurance group are they, cos i am only 23 with 3 years no claims. I currently drive an Astra GSI 2.0 16v which is nice but getting a bit old now. That is group 15 and costs me £900 fully comp. Well guys i know many questions but i need help. thanks in Advance Carl
