mr squidian Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 Rightyo just over 2 months till the big day and im 17! been looking at insurance for the old shlaaag mk1. £1500 £2000 £1000 £2200 Now, dad has Babs sat on the drive. a 1.1 standard car, apart from the lazers on it. cheaper to insure a scrappy old mk1 fiesta or a reasonably orginal mk2 escort?
MadMark2 Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 Mate insurance sucks for you "young-uns" still when your an old git like me you can insure my bmw 535i sport for £235 fully comp.......... cant you get ltd milage + "classic car" insurance on your policy....??
Mr Sam Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 you have to be a certain age for classic policy it was a grand for my first year on the fezza, with pass plus discount and 30% discount cus my mum had been with them for years
mr squidian Posted April 30, 2008 Author Report Posted April 30, 2008 so am i better off driving the bogo escy or the mod'd fez?
Mr Sam Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 take the fez to stock mate there about the cheapest cars to insure and run and they aint all that slow
surfingturnip Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 I've not been able to get any quotes lower than £1900 on a bog standard 1300 mk2 escort yet so the fezza might be an option. I'll be interested to know how you go on as I'm still on the lookout
Burns Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 you're less likely to spin the fezza too, get rwd after you've got some experience under your belt
old skool freestyler Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 1500 is good i pay 1698 a year for mine your always looking stupid high as your a young lad but just have to suck it up for the first couple of years
Mr Sam Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 you're less likely to spin the fezza too, get rwd after you've got some experience under your belt yes put if you push it hard on a wet rounderbout understeer can give nasty suprises once mastered you can of course use it to your advantage and scare the shit out of people about to pull in front of you
