.com or old domain?

Well I am thinking of starting an Indian site as many of you must know. What i am thinking to do is to use one of my old domains, so I can see if the site is popular, without using any extra monye. But then it is the daunting thing of someone taking the .com domain fo my site.

So what shall I do? Carry on with my old .co.uk domain or buy a new one.
