Yeah looks great. Just that 'real' students who have had to make their own future, without mum and dad's finance, won't be able to afford to spend loans or savings on a car, not forgetting insurance, road tax, petrol, especially for a male driver but as usual the media makes us feel as if we can buy the world. Its this same lunatic mentality that's got us into this economic/banking or should I say bankers mess.

8 out of 11 comment on this are spam, well done MSN, clearly some revenue from spam ad's then......

 

Things have changed since I got my first car when I was 21 and not from "mummy and daddy" either!!! I worked and saved up for a reasonably magnificent Peugeot, good mileage for an older diesel too. Maybe the youngsters of today can get into debt to drive a nice motor, it was not so easy 25 years ago.

I am amazed, the comment I made yesterday has been noted by MSN and the spam has been removed. Now this is one of the only articles on MSN without any......... I wonder if there is a plot or a deception tactic here as MSN do allow spam on this comment service and do not remove it usually.

 

If it makes me look silly that's fine ..... no spam

Things haven't changed much in attitudes and I went to uni 11 years ago. Petrol savers, low insurance and easy to drive. I would have expected there to be a bit more eco cars leaf, prius.
