I am older and wiser than you.
Just trust me when I say that you will regret spending stupid amounts on insurance. Come 3/4 years time when you look back, you will think ''What a bellend I really was''.
I didn't think of that Gally.
He says he's owned the car for the last 12 months. So if he bought it off the repair company, it was written off when Trophy Values were strong! So lets say it was £7000 market value around 14 months ago, thats a repair cost of over £3500!!! Christ.
The problem with 'hot hatches' when they get cheap.
The chavs buy them, run them for 6 months, realise they can't afford £2000 a year insurance and sell them on.
Hammerite smooth silver for me. Keeps it all looking clean and tidy.
Take wheels off, wire brush, wash with brake cleaner (or carb cleaner) paint with hammerite, leave for one hour, drive off. Done.
He bought it for £3600. Its in his history.
And as for him saying its on V-car.... wtf? He hasn't 'advertised' its been a write off. He's hidden it in there in the hope nobody notices.
