18, looking at a 172 cup, would the insurance cane me?

Check insurance, i was looking, for me when im 19 with 2 yrs NCB with endsleigh, fully comp in own name, its £3040
 
Aye, you'll need money to repair it, but everything will be tied up in insuring and running the thing.

Bear in mind they need super unleaded, which is £105-£110 a litre, they cost £220 a year to tax, and eat tyres at £180 for two...
 
yup! but my insurance is £600 notes at 23....... but they do take a fair share of your money every once in a while!
 
22, first own insurance with pass plus on a 172 cup £1050 fully comp wid Bell direct! I'd wait if i were you!
 
I had a 172 @ 17. It sounds a laugh and year your mates will think its cool for about 10 mins but it isn't worth it. The 106 gti i had at 19 was just as much fun and about 1/10 of the insurance cost.

Overall

172 @ 17 = Moron
 
As much as i would love one at the young age of 18, i think i would probably end up dead and would be a risk to myself and others. Work your way up to power, experience does wonders for your driving!

What im doin all though 1.2 8v to a 1.6 16v is aa rather large jump but ive been driving a 1.4 everynow and then.....

going straight to a sport sounds great in your head but youll no doubt find out the hard way thats its a bad idea after your only past for a year or so when y ou ram it into a wall
 
depends what you call cane.....in reality its a high percentage of the cars value your paying really.
mines 1295 2yrs driving, 2ncb, 1 sp30 with bell on a 182 FF
 
Im looking at insuring my 1.2-2.0ltr conversion next year when im 18. I dont see the problem to be honest as if my parents didnt think i was sensible enough i know for a fact my dad wouldnt be helping getting this engine running like he is.

I know some people that i would'nt like to see driving a 1.4 nevermind a 2.0, if you are one of those type of people i wouldnt bother as you will end up in a ditch.

You won't crash FFS lol

My first car was a 1.8 16v Clio. Then a 172 then a 280bhp tonne Westfield at 18. I'm still here.
 
Children shouldnt be allowed drive fast cars, it should b against the law.

You would be driving round maccys with your fogs on all the time!
