2b honest the grouping IMO is always a bit limited as either way when yer talkin top notch yer guna have to bend over for wot it\'s worth i always try getting sum BS quotes with details equal to mine but by however many months etc out (in terms of birth etc) so as to be roughly equal with reality when takin quote out so i have a ball park figure then when reality stirkes search like billyooo for the best one.....

grouping dont really fuss me as i say the pulsar is 19/20

ncb is decent , no points etc so should be ok

I was told that the rex was about two insurance scoring points under the Skyline (the skyline being one of the most expensive cars to insure on thier database).. always gonna be a 20 due to no traction control and if ya get it fitted thats seen as a mod and will cost ya more hehe

Matty you shouldn\'t have a prob mate.. just the age thing that may get in ya way as a lot of companies are 25 or over, some 30 now :(

you\'ll be fine thou, welcome to the fun! :D

If you\'re 23 then I think you\'re gonna have trouble even getting a quote unfortunately!! :(

The few insurance companies that would insure under 25\'s (Tesco, Direct line, not sure who else?) have recently changed their policy on import RX-7s and won\'t take out any new policies on them for under 25\'s.  I think they will insure a UK car, but then you gotta try and buy/find one!!

Best thing to do is ring a few companies up and find out!! ;) :confused:
