Insurance For 18 Year Old?

[J4P RX]

Go to the Tesco site.  Make up some cars and get a few quotes.  Then youll have an idea of how difficult the insurance is going to be.

Starlet Turbos are all imports, this makes it extra hard to get covered and I tihnk your underestimating how expensive insure is.

At 18 my Bro was paying about 1.5k for a 1.4 Metro and this was last year.

You can come see my saxo VTS if you like because if you live in Slough you live prety close to me. Im in Addlestone, weybridge, Woking area. Also you can check out our 1st gen RX-7 which might be cheaper to insure but still quite a high insurance group i think. Both cars are group 14 (I think).

WOULD I GET INSURED ON A FIRST GEN RX7 IF IT IS GROUP 14

AND I JUST GOTTA A QUOTE OF 5000 POUNDS ON A FORD FIESTA RS TURBO FROM THE AA:eek:

SO CAN ANYONE RECOMMEND ME A LIST OF 1.3 OR 1.4 TURBOS THAT I COULD GET INSURED ON

one insurance trick to watch out for, btw.  You may be able to get a reasonable deal, but look at the excess...  I\'ve a friend who got a stupid daft deal on his insurance, but his excess was over £10k.  He had a smack, and you can imagine the rest...!!

Good luck, and keep up the ambition!!

Fiat uno tubbies are quite fun but then i was killing it doing a trial thing in a muddy field (OK there "were" a few fences too untill i had a go....)
It was all perfectly legal at a subaru dealers a meet few years back they were also fiat dealers & had an old turbo with a gasket or sumin gone so they let us kill it in stylee in their big field damn that was fun......:cool

Uno turbo is group 10 insurance.

Punto sporting is group 7 (new shape one comes with one of those boom boom box things in the boot if your interested)

Fiat chinq & Sechento (spelling) are very cheap insurance not the quickest things though, but at 18 your not going to get anything super quick unless you get a 125 bike or somthing?

[Christopher]

SAxo VTR is group 7 aswel

MR2 ?? That would be a nice car to have at 18 (wish i did). Wouldn\'t be able to get teh turbo version though. Or mabe the version before that if insurance is too high.  How about an old Lotus Europa? My mate is doing his up at the moment. Were going to race the 1st gen (1985) against it Should be fun. :rollin

ok ive decided that im gonna get a 1997 honda civic 1.4 hatchback
and gonna modify it so it looks stunning

hows that idea?

[GaryS]

I can point you at POW-R for body kits :rolleyes:

(edit note - I know Alan from POW-R and his every day car is a 1.4 civis automatic with Mugen body kit).

[Silent_Assassin]

thanks

but what i have in mind at the moment is a bomex front bumper and a wing west rear bumber (tuner typ 2) and side skirts from wing west. and a roof spoiler

i want a black metallic colour and some 17 inch rims.

i want to put red vinyl on it and have blue neon

how does that sound?
