wtf, why would anybody actually pay that just to be insured on a Cossie, saying that though weve got a traders policy thank fook lol

couldnt look at spending anything over 1k for insurance, not worth it,

I've been hunting around for Escort Cossie prices recently and I have to say I was suprised to find out it would only cost me around £400-500 more than what I'm paying on my RST! (23 btw)
