Hi All.

[StevoD]

Evening,

Looking to purchase a Twingo RS 133

Currently have a 2011 Honda Civic Type S 1.4, being 19 was all I could get insured on when i decided to buy it new last year after selling my Clio 1.2 Expression

Mates just bought a RS200 FullFat, which is very nice, was looking for one of those but insurance is way too much!

Then I noticed the Twingo's insurance group and a few I liked the look of, very cheap insurance even on the RS, which is always good

Any advice or things to look out for is appreciated.

Thanks

Stephen

Welcome

Welcome. As Dazza said they're still pretty new. If you get yourself one with full service history and still in warranty you should be alright.

Welcome to the madhouse. Defiantly read the thread Neil (singlespeed) linked to as it has links to all the threads where there's been a few repeat problems.

Welcome

don't be put off by the GT's teeny tiny engine, if cost of insurance is an issue then look into one - plenty of easy mods to do to them to make them almost as fast as a 133.

whichever you choose, you wont be disappointed by the handling (even on my model! )

Rs looks

agreed! if you can afford an RS, do it. followed my own car yesterday it looked so tiny on the motorway with its tiny tyres and skinny bodywork.

I look forward to your choice

If I could have found one for the price I got my GT at I would have snapped up a 133 but after my mods I am.more than happy with the looks and handling of my GT. Either way the Twingo is a fantastic car so I guarantee you'll be happy if you buy one!

Welcome Ive had a dynamique, gt and now a 133, and ive got to say you wont be disapointed if you get a 133, or a gt to be fair, but 133 is the one to go for

Thanks for all the replies

I can afford a Twingo RS insurance, RS200 Clio was what I wanted but couldn't afford the premium
