And if yes, what car do you drive?

I have a Ford Escort 1.3 at the moment, but I'm buying a Peugeot 205 Gti 1.9 sometime in the next few months.. :D

focus is pretty good, its the second car in my house but im only 15 so i can't drive. seeing as I probably won't be able to afford a new car can anyone recommend any good secondhand deals and say whether a 7 year old BMW 3 series is better than say, a 3 year old ford mondeo?

You just can't beat a Chrysler Engine. I'm 22 and driving a maroon 1991 Dodge Dynasty. It's in a fair condition (needs a new drivers side window motor) and has about 181000 miles. She gets me around though.

In all honesty, I hate driving, its so boring.

Back in the 'nam, I used to drive tanks and blow charlies head off, there were no such things as stop signs, and you were SUPPOSED to run over pedestrians.

The only time I have fun driving now is when I play GTA. :)

I hope you run your own insurance company, because otherwise the insurance for that car is gonna be higher than Superman smoking crack. Seriously, you got any insurance quotes for that thing yet? I would be interested in what they are...

(i paid for about a half, and my parents paid the rest...well they did it for my sister so i dont give a shit)it only cost us £5,000 cos we traded in an old peugeot 106 for £2,500. also the car took years to arrive (then they told us the model i was getting fell off the delivery truck....bad salesman, never meant to tell the truth) so i got a free cd player and metallic paint.

lol, insurance is scam, i tried some online quotes and got around 6,000USD for the cheapest quote, and 12,000USD highest quote (both of these are just no fault liablity insurance for 1 year). I think im gonna need to speak with an insurance agent directly, I want to see them have the courage to tell me those figures to my face :P
Hopefully online quotes arent accurate.
