    So I'm 16 and I'm looking to get my first car within two months, (I get to drive at 16 due to me having Cystic Fibrosis) and I'm stuck between these two cars.


    Ford Focus CC. Looks nice, practical, good first car in my opinion.


    BMW 1 series. Also looks nice, less room in the back for friends, and miles to the gallon isn't too good. But the BMW badge is worth it's weight in girls.

    So what car do you drive? And anyone who's owned one of these cars got any opinions? :50:

    take it you can get these cars cheap on insurance because cystic fibrosis counts as a disability? One of my mates mates had cancer and he was driving about in a brand spanking new 1.8 astra 3 door with like 20 inch wheels.

    ...I was not aware of this?! I thought it was only available if you had to drive long distances for a job.
