Folks,
I have just passed my driving test, and I want to drive around with my friends and go places. I have my eye set on a rather nice Volkswagen Estate, but my dad days I should be taking it slow and continue in a car more similar to the Ford Focus I learned to drive in. Also, I learned on an automatic, and my father thinks I should be driving for 2-3 years before upgrading to a manual gearbox, as they are complicated and if you get things wrong you can ruin your gearbox or engine.
Any advice?
Buy a 15 year old Mazda MX-5 for not a lot of money and have some fun instead

I sat in one once, it was like a junkyard inside.

+1, retract if possible
Why not build a car sim for the money of the car? Much safer and you will never get in an accident.
My first car was a Lotus Elise, such a great car and a manual. Lately the familiy said we need an estate car so I complied with a „boring“ Audi estate, only thing they did not realize yet its actually an RS6… Have fun and do not worry too much. Getting a jet after your license is no good idea but those are just cars, be a bit carefull and things will be ok.

And turbo of course.
That one could fit? It’s not an estate but they may make a retract version …
