Ok, here's my problem.. My 17 yr old daughter who is due to get her licence next yr is hell bent on getting a Bemma. And she is Also doggedly determined to buy before ( read NOW!) she gets her licence so that she has experience driving in her own car.
She has picked out numerous 1993, 94 318's for around the $10,000 mark. She has 8 or 9k saved. One example here... http://www.autotrader.com.au/photodi...number=5743967 Am I right in discouraging her in looking at 11 or 12 yr old cars? (The above example has 119,000ks by the way) I have also tried further discouragement by informing her of the insurance on a BMW (around $1200 even in My name) But she won't be swayed! For last 12 months she has been learning in her Mum's Mazda 3 & DOES drive very well. I have suggested Corollas, 323's, Pulsars,etc... But NOOOO... "I want a Beema" Any advice appreciated guys!
