If that's your first car let alone RS then yes, you've done very well!

Looks great! Whats the spec on it? Miles/Owners etc?

Lovely car matey,

Mind me asking how you insure that?

I'm 18, a years no claims, soon to be 19 with 2 years no claims, and its expensive enough insuring my 2.5 V6 Vauxhall Omega, in my own name i pay a premium of £1900ish TPFT!

Would love to get a Sierra Cosworth, but insurance i thought, would be insane?

Adam

Christ!!! If you were my son I'd be kicking you out and telling you to get a house if you could afford to spend £7k insuring a car!!

Hmm.. I wonder how insurance will be at 19 with 2 years no claims then?

Perhaps it'll be affordable?
