yeah but thats my issue ,,, if i get a quote then ring and its not what was quoted or i get refused ! how solid r the online quotes for me to go and buy a motor and know im gonna get tht quote for it

Why don't you give it a try? Get an online quote, ring up and confirm it, but state you're still looking for the car.

oh wow now that looks the dogs bollox! lol .. not a gti then ?? seems so many different specs its hard to keep up lol ... id gladly have something such as tht even a 1.6 driver just seems that theres a hell of alot more gti`s out there than anything else.. and i wud assume insurance quotes wudnt be so diff from something like your motor modded to a standard gti

Well in my current situation, this isn't a GTi, it's the model before a GTi, I asked for a quote on a GTi with the same mods and it came back £2K, I'm paying £650 for this with everything declared etc. So yeah insurance is a lot nicer on non-GTis, and too be honest, this still has a fair poke to it, this particular model has a 90bhp engine, the 8v GTi is 115bhp, so not 'that' much in it.


I'm after looks more than anything atm anyway, insurance is too high for me right now so make it look good and then get something more powerful when my insurance comes down.

Well just look for a 1.6/1.8, that's what I did, paid £900 for this back in Feb' last year, I've put a fair amount of money into it but looking pretty swish now, all  need to do is sort the feckin' engine out (replacement 1.8 engine as my piston rings have gone lol).
