I'm 20 with almost 2 years no claims (renewal in September) I've not got a 1.8T yet but I've been looking at insurance quotes and my cheapest quotes are around £2000-£2300 mark. Can't really afford that on a student budget :rolleyes: so will have to stick to the 1.6 for a few more years.

Nope, just house sharing with a few friends in a normal rented house :smiley: but there is no driveway or anything so public road parking probably doesn't help me.
