The 182 is group 16...tho the cup is group 17 IIRC..
Some companies wont cover the cup as they think its more of a risk with no ABS (which is balls IMO)...
On my 182 I have my own policy at 22 with one years NCB, a 50/50 accident nearly 3 years ago, garaged in a Glasgow post code £900 a year.

In your opinion statistics and fact are balls??
Sorry. Not an ABS thing but come on, that's a silly statement.
BTW, Last time I checked my insurance quotes for RS (early last year, now buying a 172). 182 was £1900 and 172cup was £2200. Clio DCi was £1300 :dead:
BTW, the insurance groups you see on car stats etc aren't actually what the insurers use apparently. The girl at Direct Line said she didn't know exactly what it was based on but that the 0-20 groups are just a very very vague guide on how much you should expect to be paying.

I don't think there's a 'cheap' 2.0 to insure, it depends on so many factors, postcode, age, mileage etc etc... I know myself that sub-25 the quotes were silly but not un-obtainable. I am now (just) 26 and it's a more manageable £450 F/C for me and g/f.
Oh and colour is a factor too, red (supposedly) is the most stolen colour
As Alan says tho, Cup's are classed as a higher risk.

older cars are cheaper to insure. a ff 172 will be cheaper to insure than a 172 cup.
i had luck with bell.co.uk and added 2 named older drivers to my policy which took loads of money off. if i was you, i'd find a car id like then ring up/get an online quote for most of the companies on the insurance sticky thread.
how much do you have to spend on insurance? mine was £2000 ish when i was 19 nearly 20 with 2yrs ncb. 2005 182 ff with both cups if that helps?

do they not re-assess your car and tax it accordingly? what car/clio did you convert? and what to an F4R? just wondering

Where is that from Ryan, it's much more when I've done quotes so far.
Matta, you will lose a lot of money if you buy a 1.6 and then a 2.0. Better off sticking with the 1.2 for now.

No as points are not claims!!!
Unless you havent told your company in like months, at the end of renewal they can deny you any NCB for being dishonest.

Insurance isn't as simple as group 1-20, there is also different banding's within that (a,b,c,d etc). The main effect on insurance is your postcode, once did a comparison with a friend on identical cars/age/driving experiance/ncb/storage, with the only differeance being postcode (100miles apart, both good area's) and the quote was £200 different!!!!
Specialist insurers will always be cheaper than elephant, norwich union etc. But you will need to be 21 for most of them.
I am about to renew with Greenlight £495, 4 years ncb, 3 points.
