i take it by that that your a young driver?
ive found admiral/elephant to be gud for young drivers...we do have a member on here from hic, martinb, but not sure at what age they start insuring people..

yeah i'm 17 at the minute, 18 soon.

as soon as i can insure one at a sensible price then i will have one, by sensible i mean upto £1500!

ive got an 04 clio at the minute, but want to go oldschool! stripped out, recarpetted with 6point roll cage, 2 buckets in the front, slammed on coilies.
want it for show use, and also some trackdays!

Insurers will have a field day with you for even mentioning "track day car" anyway three pointers to get lower insurance! 1) join gti's owners club 2) get a sh!t hot alarm i.e clifford 3) limit your milage per year prices will tumble! I was only paying £300 fully comp for my vr6. try RAC.. :cool:

i will be getting a cat 1 alarm on it!

if i do trackdays ill get independant insurance, not go through who i am normally insured with!

mileage will be limited to about 6k.

just had a quote for one now at 17 with 1ncb for 5k with elephant!!!

how do i join the gti pwners club??
