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

actually makes a good road car eliminates alot of wheel spin the low end boost caping. and if your caining it just have to drive between 5k to 7.5k and your always in the good power. just like riding an old 2 stroke motorbike quick as fuck if you drive it right.

Great car mate!
On the insurance I cant understand how you end up with quotes like that to be honest? I am 23 with two years no claims (driving for 6, lost a few years due to an accident in a car park (nothing major just a scrape)).
MY Saph Cosworth is insured fully comp with mods declaired (no special mods just exhaust and wheels) costs Ł797 with Greenlight.
Do you live in a post code with a high crime rate? Could you possibly use a family members address to register and insure the car at if they live in a good area? May help to bring the premium down.
