Young Marmalade

Featured Replies

Has anyone ever bought their car off youngmarmalade.com? Or no anyone who has? If so what are your/their views on it? This is where i plan to buy my car from because its relatively cheap 220 a month for an 08 plate ford fiesta mk6.5 1.4 zetec and insurance over 5 years.



i was going to buy a new fezza on there but luckly found out that the insurance quotes thy state on the websites are only for the first year , thn u have to go back to normall insurance wich thy do called club marmalade but u cant drive ur car at night or thy chasrge u 60 pounds per night and thy fit a tracker to ur car , thy seem a good deal at first but wen u read into it a bit more its not so good :)

Yeah I no it's only for the first year, can you drive at night for the first year?

Just read up about the insurance on the website you can either have their low cost policy which means that you can't drive between the hours of 11pm and 5am or a standard policy when you can drive when you want which is the policy I need seeing as I am sometimes in work till 11/12pm :D

Heff

yeah lol i just got confused and thought sod it lol as i basicly only drive my cars at night lol

haha, which fiesta have you got?

lol im a sucker who drives mummys and daddies car lol , dad has a mk7 fezza diesel , but i personally own a 2004 clio but i was going to get a brand new fezza mk7 1.25 zetec as it would work out cheaper over 5 years avin new car thn used because of young marmalade makes u think tht u can get the cheap in surance every year but its only for the 1st year :)

Ouch what litre's your dad's? I been driving mummy and daddies haha nice 1.8 53 plate C-Max TDCI it is so quick :D yeh but I only need it mega cheap for the first year :D because next year I'll be working full time so I'll be able to afford it :D I reccon you should get it :D It won't be that much more next year with your no claims bonus plus your pass plus :D How old are you posh paws if you don't mind me asking?

Heff

its only a 1.4 its okayish i guess , i liked driving his 2009 ford focus titanium more thou it was a 2.0 tdci LOL tht was really quick :) but if u are used to driving a focus (in my hounest opinion) i would rather (and advise you) to get a 2006 focus 1.4 or 1.6 rather thn a 2008 fezza they are much much beter in every way possible ( i can elabarate on this if u want to know why) :) i am 19 years old , o its to late now i have already purchased my clio and keeping that for 3 years , thn after im hopefully getting a golf or a focus :)

by the way i drove a 1.4 mk6.5 zetec for a year :) it the first car i had :)

I don't like focus's they are a poor looking car in my opinion unless you get the ST or the RS and I'm 17 so I would never a) be able to afford it haha and even if I could B ) I wouldnt be able to insure it haha

I drive the car I'm getting as my driving lesson car so thats why I know i like it :D
