think i recognise this car - is it mr rainbows old car? awesome car if it is!
as for insurance - your doing well. and that power graph looks pretty good to me. high revs power means a decent drivable cossie to me off boost like mine was although nowhere near 480bhp! that must be fun!

What did you keep breaking on the old diffs ? does thet Gripper have a better cwp or atleast shot peened as I was under the impression thats the weak link ?
Either way you should be leaving some equal black lines down the road now !

i hear of quotes under 1k for 23 year olds all the time on pf with big insurance companies and i cant understand how people are getting those preiums????
cheapest quote i got was Ł4,000
licence for 6 years, 1 years ncb (only coz ive been name driver for 5)
one company said "we wont even insure you unless your prepared to pay 20k" wow
looks like i wont be owning a cosworth then! still love em

I think there is still a hole in the road from where Glynns diff exploded on the slip road to the A1 out of town big boost at low revs on stock diffs is NOT the way forward
