Might be do with the fact it's quicker, costs more and is a higher insurance group, just a guess mind.

 

[imperial04]

lol but im paying 1300 at the mo!

Just to make you sick I pay £647 comp for my Ferrari 360. :rasp:

I'm 34 with a clean licence. They dont even need the NCB so I can use that on the Clio (which amazingly I pay £800.)

Dont ask me why or how I pay peanuts for the F and the opposite for the Clio

I'll have to bear that in mind...in Gants Hill too! Does he do insurance on all cars?

a 2.5 Z4 isn't quicker than a 182 to be honest, they are only about 190 bhp and weigh more

but I guess it's more desirable for people to steal/vandalise...

5k miles and if I go upto 7k then it's an extra £200.

I did 6k miles in the F and 3k in the Clio last year, should really swap that around somehow but difficult with alll the Scud runs...such as this one... http://www.scudrunners.net/videos.html

Worse, i'm bald :rasp:

He's great. He does all my insurance. Cars (from Ford to Ferrari), home, business, liability ins...

i can imagine the 360 being a little more fun to drive hence more milage! lol.. he's on lunch ill try him later

He's at lunch?! Didnt think the man left his desk! lol

I'm bringing the F to the Essex meet in southend tommorow night. If you're free get your name down

Hairdressers are rubbish drivers so insurance is higher on the z4.

WTF

For me @ 21 with 3 years NCB is comes to £650 fully comp?

Aye, its not that much for me to insure either, strange you can't get covered :S

Looked at getting a Z4 last year, drove one and wasn't overly impressed anyway tbh, don't think your missing out on much.

The Z4M is fairly good.

Z4M is a different story..........My tutor at Uni has one and it sounds great. Not been out in it mind.

To be fair, during the test drive I had a rather fat sales man in the passenger seat, must have weighed 20+ stone so Im sure that blunted performance.
