go for the 1.8t mate im 17 and have a 1.8 t. try e-car insurance. i have had a non fault accident aswell and they were so helpful!! would reccomend to anyone!

Seriously, how much are you paying, and is the insurance in YOUR name? 

yes the insurance is in my name and i am the only driver buddy, i had a 1.4 corsa sport but 3 months after i passed my test some muppet ran up my arse, got £1200 for my corsa which was a right result as i only paid £800 in the 1st place haha and unfortunatly my granddad died 3 days after the crash, got some money from him and decided to splash out abit. it was £1500 for the corsa and i had 8months insurance left till renewal so changed the car over and paid an evtra £550 so a total of £2050. not to bad in my opinion  when my mate is paying £2350 for a 1.6 zetec-s haha

Bloody hell. That's a LOT of money on insurance! 

[bobbarley]

Indeed.  Paying out near to the cost of the car each year in insurance =

a lad of 17 with a 1liter corsa on their own insurance pays around £1200-£1400 depending on circumstances. its crap! however if your a girl around £500-£800

how much do you guys pay and how old are you if you dont mind telling me.

I pay £680 with Adrian Flux with filter, d/v, 18's and a remap (not yet done but insured anyway) declared on my 5door 1.8T with 6 points and 5 years no claims and Im 23. Personally I thought that was lots and lots but when I was 18 I had a 205 1.6 gti and that was £2500. Madness. Have you tried insuring your chassis with a 1.8T conversion and going that route? I was gonna do that with my e36 325i. It was cheaper to insure that with an M3 engine than to insure a genuine M3. Worth a thought.......... although its a lot of work and cash.

Mines £700 a year fully comp.  I'm 27, 9 years no claims (protected).  Lot of money, but I live in Manchester, F* area, most expensive in the country.
