HI,
Nothing like a new girl member to get a 5 page thread after 6 hours, lol
You should go to the meets, meet people, check out the cars and think wisely before purchasing anything. that way youll have a better understanding of what to get for your money. be aware of people trying to sell you their cars, mates cars etc!! they want rid of them.
SO..take your time, think, get quotes
BUT DONT BE PUT OFF BY THE PRICES, YOU KNOW WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD. YOULL HAVE FUN WHEN YOU GET IT
