Best Cars to Buy For Your Teenager

<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Think back to your first car moment&period; Wasn’t it exceptional&quest;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Very few things in life can beat the excitement of teenagers about to drive off for the first time in their first car&period; As long as they have learned to drive from a pro and already applied for a driving license&comma; we don’t see why they shouldn’t be able to make car ownership a top priority&period; Parents also often share in this excitement&comma; but being older and more pragmatic they are concerned about finding the safest vehicle for their teen driver&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Well&comma; the experts are here to help&period; Car brokers can take your old car and exchange it for a newer&comma; safer model that’s just right for your teenager&comma; in fact&comma; they admit that &OpenCurlyQuote;we buy any car’&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Some blogs recommend a list of used cars that makes it a bit easier for parents to spot the best possible deals for cars for their first-time drivers&period; But before we get to the list&comma; this is what we should be looking at when buying a car for your teenager&colon;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<ul style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">&NewLine;<li>Purchasing a new or used car for your teenager<&sol;li>&NewLine;<li>Making sure the vehicle is rated highly by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety -IIHS<&sol;li>&NewLine;<li>The car should have proven low fuel costs&comma; an EPA rating of 20 mpg or more is always welcome<&sol;li>&NewLine;<li>Safety is a massive issue for teen drivers&comma; that’s why it might be a good idea to invest in a vehicle with an Electronic Stability Control equipment&period;<&sol;li>&NewLine;<&sol;ul>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">There are plenty of reasons why it’s a good idea to get a car for your teenager&period; Let’s check out some of the cars that made the mark&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h3 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">1&period;Renault Clio<&sol;h3>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Safe&comma; secure to drive and cute to boot&comma; the Clio is also quite affordable&period; The engines are small but a good fit for first-time drivers who are also on a budget&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Models built between 2003 and 2008 are safe and available for £300 to £1&comma;500&period; The 16 valve&comma; 1&period;2-liter engine will also land a respectable category seven insurance in the UK&period; The models built after 2008 are a lot bigger and come with standard-sized engines which might be a bit too ambitious for a teenager driving on adrenaline&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The tiny little Clio comes with a sunroof of its own&comma; and it’s a good idea to get it weatherproofed because it is prone to leaking&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h3 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">2&period; Fiat Panda<&sol;h3>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Once you are done laughing at its shape &lpar;that looks nothing like a panda&excl;&rpar;&comma; you can pick up a 2009 model for less than £2000&comma; complete with powered steering and a central locking system&period; This might not be the coolest car on the market&comma; but it is a reliable workhorse that can easily beat the more stylish cars with its hardcore reliability and affordability&period; Another major plus is that it also has a very cheap insurance policy&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h3 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">3&period; Peugeot 106<&sol;h3>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">In the early 90s&comma; the Peugeot model 205 was THE car for cool teenagers&period; The 106 is beautifully reminiscent of that era&comma; and Peugeot stopped making it in 2004&period; That 2004 model is the one you’ll want to get your hands on for your teenager&period; Some of these 106s also have built-in powered steering&comma; and these may cost you a little more&comma; think upwards of £3000&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The Peugeot 106 falls in level 7 of car insurance&comma; so if you don’t want to spend obscene amounts of money on your teenager’s car insurance&comma; this car will help you out there as well&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The only issue with the 106 is that it can be obnoxiously loud&period; This is not the car anyone can use for a quiet cruise&period; But it’s a cool car&comma; one that won’t embarrass your teenager&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h3 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">4&period;Volkswagen Polo<&sol;h3>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Again&comma; the Polo is a good looking&comma; safe and teenager-friendly car that offers decent mileage as well&period; You can buy a 2007- 08 model for around £2000&period; But if you want something that costs even lower&comma; but without compromising on the safety and drivability Polo is known for&comma; why not go for an even older version&quest; A 2001 to 2005 Volkswagen Polo will set you back some £500 and £900&period; This will also&comma; of course&comma; lower your insurance premium&period; The higher end&comma; more expensive Polo will fall in category seven or above&comma; of the insurance classification&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h3 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">5&period;Citroen Saxo<&sol;h3>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The premium hatchback was initially manufactured in 1996&period; The car was only built until 2003 and discontinued after that&period; This means that powered steering versions of the car will be tough to come by&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">VTS and VTR models of the Saxo can be seen across Britain commonly&period; However&comma; these cars have built themselves a reputation for breaking down&comma; so do get service history from the previous owner if you are planning on buying one of these&period; That doesn’t say so much about the car as much as it does about the owners&comma; because Saxos were often owned by racer types&comma; who sped on the roads and ignored resulting issues with their cars&period; So just be careful that you are buying a well-loved and well-kept Saxo for your teenager&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h3 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">6&period;Nissan Micra<&sol;h3>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The Micra is no laughing stock&period; It is a powerful car with a reliable engine that performs well even after being driven for hundreds of miles&period; Your teenager will be safe in one of these&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">Now&comma; there is no denying the fact that this isn’t the fastest car on this list&period; But it is still a decent one&comma; especially if you have an unruly teenager&comma; one who is prone to speeding&comma; at your hands&period; Newer Micras can be had for £11&comma;995 and can be financed comfortably&period; A second -hand&comma; older model of Micra can be bought for upwards for £500&comma; and we reckon it’ll be right for your teenager&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<h3 style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The Last Word<&sol;h3>&NewLine;<p style&equals;"text-align&colon; justify&semi;">The teenage years bring with them a longing for freedom and carefree privilege&period; And that’s why it is the right time for them to learn to handle responsibilities such as driving to work and school&period; As long as you are certain that the <a href&equals;"https&colon;&sol;&sol;www&period;nytimes&period;com&sol;2015&sol;12&sol;19&sol;your-money&sol;how-much-car-do-you-buy-to-keep-your-teenager-safe&period;html" target&equals;"&lowbar;blank" rel&equals;"noopener">car you are buying them is safe and affordable<&sol;a>&comma; there is absolutely nothing wrong with it&period; Buying your child a car&comma; need not be a reckless decision as long as you have drilled into them the senses of accountability and duty&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;
