Danny
03-02-2006, 08:27 AM
I always see over 40's/50's in them, mainly the LX ans SX models as i guess thats what they want in a car ;)
p.s. You might be best expanding the age groups a bit....Jerry want fit in any :P

Only a VTS at 23, i had a 3.0i Supra turbo then, followed by a morgage then sold that and had to down grade a little to a 2.0i Turbo Saab, then came the family and the Diesels started to arrive, ahhhh, now look at me 1.4i Furio and at 33....
So if I were you start getting the fun out of the way, it all goes down hill very very quickly, and money starts to get eaten away by other things. lol

:mrgreen: im 20 on 19th may, dont forget that, im expecting money for my insurance premiums off all of you LOL [smilie=pdt_aliboronz_24.gif]
pass my test @ 17 bought 6month old, 1.0 new shape Nissan micra 53plate
got bored of that so bought a magical 51plate fiat stilo 1.2 , so magical, the odeometer didnt work, went up to 35900miles then everytime it would go back down to 35490!also had a leaking engine?! dunno how that worked! LOL so only kept that a month.
then went for a seat ibiza 1.4 02plate great car except the anti roll bars are broken and the brakes dont work all the time, bit scarey when the toyota corrolla in front driven by the local curry house delivery driver stops suddenly!
insurance tax and mot due so decided may as well get a new car, wit a c2 looking the best choice so snapped one up
Thats my life story hehe

i was 25 when i brought my code, 26 now and will be paying it off til im almost 30! there are two reasons i think c2's are mostly seen as for younger drivers is 1 by the time your 25 most people have kids and the c2 is hardly a family car! 2 (and this is me included ) when we get to about 21 we want a 2.0l car or more! me myself have had a 2.0l golf gti and a 2.8l vr6 and a 1.8 auto, and payed the price for them! so the plus side is now cheap tax and insurance :) it did cross my mind when i first brought it weather i was to old for a c2 but nearly a year on i couldn't give a f**k.

Skrapi
15-06-2010, 09:59 PM
Not sure if it's been said but here goes... The C2 was meant to be for older people who couldn't move very well right? But kinda backfired because you can get people making them look very very smart as Ive seen in the recent FCS Pictures.
I'm 20 tho. = )

The C2 was meant to be for older people
i thought it was designed for young people, cheap insurance, flared wheel arches, digital dials etc

i thought it was designed for young people, cheap insurance, flared wheel arches, digital dials etc
That reminds me about Top Gear saying it's for young guys to make it look good, as you say insurance and all that, but Citreon were telling me about the things on the car that help the elderly to get in and out, with the huge doors and all that... I lost interest to be honest, I was just waiting to get out of the garage and take it for a good spin.
This car was the cheapest for me to insure by a long long way, £400
