Yea £40 is really good if it's correct!

I could insure a 1.8t mk4 for less than I could a mk2 16v!  :lipsrsealed:

nope. £40 overall.
It was 1390 for the 8v, and 1430 for the 16v.

on a 16V GTI I can get cover for £510 cheapest on MoneySuperMarket...

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

It's all about risk, innit.

£10 says that with there being more 8Vs on the road there are more accidents involving them, rather than the 'surely expensive to insure' 16V, of which there are fewer around, too.

No one said insurance was supposed to make sense.

Once my 1.6 dies I might go down the 16v route, or get a family barge.
