Smoothly does it, especially with a car this powerful...

But 2.5k for inswearance alone? That\'s dedication!

I went straight from a saxo vts to my rex, and I bought it in winter. It\'s not that bad, you\'ve just got to use some common sense. :burnout

2.5k for insurance, jesus I paid about £1800 in my first year of rex ownership when I was 22, I thought that was a lot ! Thankfully it dropped by about a third each subsequent year.

Enjoy mate, don\'t let you next post be "Anyone know a good body shop"
