erm for me with tesco (in my dads name) i was quoted £500.... i am paying £1000 on a 1.1 at the moment!!!!

JamieB · 21st June 2004, 18:56

btw, im almost 19 and been driving for about 18 months! if people r paying that sort of price for a 1.4, then im gonna get dat, coz dats a couple of hundred less than wot im paying for my 1.1 at the mo!

im kinda swaying towards a mk1 coz i quite like the carzone bodykit! plus i think it looks betta on a mk1 than a mk2!

barrett^p · 21st June 2004, 19:00

yeah i'm 18!!! Thats with 1 yr no claims and in my dads name on a mk2 furio

Krissy_Bufton · 21st June 2004, 19:09

ummm on my 206 1.4 i pay £900 im with egg insurance. got 2 years no claims, and been driving for 1 year 9 months!

and the car worth £5000 (near that anyways)

try www.elephant.co.uk they r good!

DevilDamo · 21st June 2004, 19:16

if you get a quote from elephant, get a quote for a 12 month policy and not the 10 month accelerator bonus one as if you decide to change insurance compnies after the year, a lot of other compnies do not accept a 10 month bonus thing as a full years no claims discount.

GAV_FURIO · 21st June 2004, 22:02

i might look at trading my furio in for a vtr, its good for wot i wanted but know i want more power

and i suppose the only way is up

Storm_Force · 22nd June 2004, 01:29

Dont deny it!!

lol - bless ya!

pointless going from a 1.1 to a 1.4 really, just save up for a bit longer and go for a vtr/vts, think about it... 6 months down the line ull prolly be wanting to do that anyway. Also from what ive heard the 1.1s are just as quick as the 1.4s, might be wrong tho.

Your only looking at like a 300-400£ differense tops on insurance between a group 5 and 7 anyway, and furios seam to be more expensive to buy.

jonnosaxo87 · 22nd June 2004, 05:31

i didnt deny it

Northern_Will · 22nd June 2004, 05:33

VTR's, they're the way forward!

JamieB · 22nd June 2004, 15:15

im all confused now!

black_vtr, ur probably rite, i think i mite just ring up insurance companies and see what quotes they can give me for either a vtr or 1.4 westcoast! if its not to much difference, then im gonan try and push for a vtr then! - its wot i wanted in the 1st place!

all i gotta do is keep on pushing at my parents for one, but i've been wanting to change my car for ages, they always seem to "forget" or never bring it up after it has first been mentioned!

Northern_Will · 22nd June 2004, 15:45

Keep pushing man, vtr, go go go!!!
