my mate had a 7......wrote it off when the 2nd turbo kicked in on a corner in the wet......he misses that car!!!!! *cries*

[Kieron]

You have to be over 4000RPM for the 2nd turbo to kick in, 400rpm, wet corner...  :wave

[MissRX7]

yeah i have been warned  :eek

this might be a stupid question but when doing insurance quotes it brings up quite a few different models but which one is the uk version is it a 2616cc turbo coupe? :confused:

[dre]

Yep that\'s the one for the UK model  :burnout

[MissRX7]

wow great,  in that case its only £800 fully comp thats cheaper than my astra  :cool

[dre]

Really?!? :xconfused Who\'s that with then?? Have you declared the mods??

Good quote though  :cheers

[MissRX7]

bell   thats with my bf added as a driver it took it down £300,  limited miles 9000 on the 10 month bonus scheme!
can hardly believe it my self although someone said the english rx7 is a few insurance groups lower  :wiggle

[Christopher]

The import RX-7\'s you only pay tax for a 1.3 but uk ones you get cheaper insurance Id rather have the cheap insurance though  

[dre]

Miss RX7 - Your secret is safe with me. I used Bell a couple of years ago but only had a handfull of mods like you. But as the mods increased i thought i\'d better protect my investment by insuring it properly. That is a good quote though. How old is the bf?? Are you the first named driver or is he??

[MissRX7]

Lol im the named driver and he is 22 not that im going to let him drive it anyway he has a gtr to play with  :p  but he has been driving for 5 years i was really suprised it took it down so much  :rollin
if your insured fully comp does that mean you can drive any car third party or is that only over 25s?  :xconfused

"if your insured fully comp does that mean you can drive any car third party or is that only over 25s?"

Not sure on the age part but to drive another car third party using your insurance I beleive that the \'other\' car must be insured by someone.

I think your policy needs to state that you can drive other vehicles. I ran into this a few years back and wasn\'t allowed to on my fully comp insurance.

Hi and welcome BTW
