I got quotes £2100 on a 1.4 yesterday (17, first car, male, with dad as the 2nd driver (having a parent as 2nd driver lowers quote by ~£600 for me)) I'm going to go on a comparison website, and find a lower quote... then I'll take that quote back to the ins. brokers and get them to beat it. Play the...

Would it be unreasonable for the government to tax based on the emissions measured at your last MOT? (Never mind that given half the chance I'd twist the carbs a bit to the 'eco' just for the MOT and back to the 'hot' for afterwards sm4 ) (From a wannabe 300 driver... if I can afford the insurance...)

Heh, I wanted an ae86, but they're rare and pricey. And a bit overused.

Also, my mum had 2 3xx's, hit black ice with one going around an S bend once, drove it out the other side without any damage Bit of nostalgia there

After consulting my Dad, he said the distance was too great and travel, etc. would be too much to collect the car. No show Sorry mate. If it were for sale in 5 months or so it'd be a different story. (I'd have a licence by then - thinking of a 340/60 for a first 'un )

V. Interested. I've added you on msn, if you could givvus a shout on there. Don't say 'sale agreed' right away though, I'll have to free up some £ from my Dad ¬_¬ and make space in the garage (by that I mean 'move stuff across'. Double garage )

Don't get on the blower to the scrappie just yet!
