Fair play if you can afford it !

Seem's like a fair bit of jealousy circling this thread at the moment TBH!

its not jealousy at all

first off.. having a brand new GTi as a first car is stupid... the reason the insurance premiums are sky high is because the insurance candidate in question hasn't even reached his 20th birthday.. highest risk group, male, wanting to impress the chicks... prime candidate for a hospital bed - i don't need to go on

financially... if the money is his then I don't envy his financial decision making at all...  if the money isn't then someone else has more money than sense. either way, the way that you are being so blasé about this is laughable.

cancelling this car is not an option its my dream car if i have to pay 4k for insurance so be it. can anyone reccomend any insurance campanies sabre is the best quote i have had

you obviously have far more money than sense 

probably, but you only live once, live it to the max, some are more lucky than others, but maybe this guy worked his ar$e off. Best of luck finding insurance mate, it WILL be hard and it WILL be expensive, but it will be worth it

Were you reffering to me being blasé?

If so your right, I don't care what he buy's. I don't think people telling him don't do it, you must be mad etc is going to make a monkey's differance considering the car is already ordered? All the lad want's is an idea of where to find insurance for it?

If I was in his position would I do it? Probably when I was 19 yes!

Now looking back though it seems a stupid idea, but life's full of mistakes as we all know!

If you weren't refering to me, then ignore the above! 

Where abouts to you live too, as I just got a quote through comparethemeerkat.com for £2990 with the same details as yours but for my area.

Were you reffering to me being blasé?

in short. no. i was referring to the op and his apparent disregard to the value of money.

Isn't this the exact same as the other thread in the mk6 section ? I think so. Locky, locky, locked, locked.

Thread here if anyone is really that interested. http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=120241.0
