I personally think anything over 100hp is mental for the first year of driving, after this point and they have proved to be responseable then consider something with a bit more poke, but still nothing as juicy as an M car.

The more I reading these posts, the more I begin to question whether the parents in the US have more money than they have sense.

An example, my son will be driving in 2 years time and I have already picked out the car for him, whether he likes it or not.


A 1.25L Ford Fiesta.
I can't think of a new car sold in America will less than 100 hp.
