I assume that this is your first car? A 2.0 turbo is amazing as a first car! Compared to us in the UK at least, because anything over 1.6L will cost you an arm and a leg on insurance costs! I decided to see how bad it would be if I got a 2.2L Audi UR quattro turbo from the 80's as a first car - if I was registered as the owner and the only driver on the car then there were about 10 companies willing to insure me for £5,000 a year ($7,847) and there were about 110 companies that said that they wouldn't insure me at all Anyway, yes, 2.0 turbo, very nice I mean, I'm not going to tell you that this Volvo is a supercar and can tear up any car down at the track, but this is decent as a first car, nice! Thanks for sharing, Conner! PS: Darn street sweepers
Yea, I got her for a decent deal. I only paid $3,400 for it off of craigslist The interior is black leather and in pretty darn good condition. The only downside was that back left, near the taillight was scraped pretty good, maybe I'll put up a picture when I decide to get off my lazy butt again As for insurance, it only cost me about $1,500 to ensure it for a year
Probably about £1,000, which is normal for a car which is under 1.6L as a first car here... Pretty good As for the scrape, feel free to post a picture anytime, this thread will be here for when you decide to get up!
Not as bad as I thought it would be, but it does need clearing up some time... If you keep expecting tickets, shouldn't you just move the car?
The street sweep comes by every 1st and 4th tuesday every month at around 7 in the morning. I can't move it because there's nowhere to put it, my driveway is filled up and my garage is filled with junk xD And there's no way I'm getting up at 6:30am to move my car just for the street sweep.
So, over $100 a month? My recommendation: clean the garage and park there. It'll be worth it in the long run and will save you money... Right?
We'd have to buy a storage unit to store everything in there xD So technically we wouldn't me saving money
Here's a good tip then; tell your parents to either get a storage unit to store all of the things, or if not, tell them that they have to pay for your tickets when you got them. Clever? Clever!
(ah, caught this thread again. This is one of those that I keep accidentally unfollowing) So they give you a bill every time, two times a month, but they don't say anything else about it? Well, at least they'll have a steady income What is a street sweeper, anyway?
I think they usually just clean the rubbish and yucky stuff that gets clogged up at the side of the road - we have them here in England too but they're all lazy so you never see them about xD
