Christ, I don't know how you guys afford to insure and run them at those prices. I've just been quoted on a Rouse 304 R, £264 on an agreed value classic insurance policy. 35 with full ncb.

Hi Guys..

If you're over 21 with at least 1 year's NCB we can usually help.

Greenlight target performance & modified cars, vehicles that people aspire to own & love. This results in far greater care of their car, which is reflected in our premiums.

Click this link & Log onto http://www.greenlightinsurance.com/p...er=PassionFord

Or, call 01277 263030 for a quotation - and remember to mention Passion Ford.


Kind regards

Tony
