the real question is.. how much would the insurance be

yeah i saw ya age in ya profile.

if they're giving you that kind of result.. try for an 8v.. see what they say for that? i'd guess they still might say no.. or have a high price..

I'm sure someone will insure you on a 16V if the price is right. One of my m8's wanted to drive an mr2 turbo when he was 18. Rang round loads of insurance companies and no one would go near him. He eventually found a place which would take him on but they wanted 6 grand :o. He ended up in his moms Astra ;D.But it does show if you have the money you can get the insurance. Keep trying

Thats a bit steep mate my 1.6 driver is only 450 a year in my dads name with unlimited mods (except power increasing mods). Would be that price if i was 17 aswell

Be a bit wary if you do get a cheap one as they will probably put the excess sky high so that it looks more appealing to you.

Insurance is getting silly these days and with that new ?60 uninsured driver fee that they are gonna introduce its a licence to print money.
