  80MPG BEEZA
reet i've had my 172 conversion in since last year and hadnt updated my insurance from the 1.2 getting qoutes over 2000 still at current with MOT coming up i thought its time to face the music and stop the risk even though i only do little mileage, i phone up tell them currently paying 1012 on the 1.2 with kit wheels suspension and everything sh*tting myself as i'm on hold, ok mr thompson your new premium is 1200! i passed i just added an extra 120bhp for 200 squidles i'm proper chuffed now :) eeeyyy and my new tattoo machine has came its lush cant wait to test it out down at the studio :)

nice to see you've got all of your mods insured (even if it did take a while lmao), i'm thinking of doing this to my clio, nice to know it doesnt add great deal! if you dont mind me asking, how old are you and how many no claims?
 
i should think so...

theres me paying my insurance...when i could have just done what you did and drove illegally..?

your lucky you didnt get caught...

well its not like i use the car for miles and miles my work is less then 60 seconds away thing is theres loads of polish poople driving round with crap all so atleast i had sum sort of insurance even if it was void atleast i'm upto speed now
i'm 21 with one years ncb and pass plus it has a cat 1 alarm on and its garage and 8000 miles per annum should really take it down to 6000 for how little it gets used normally just sunday back road trips that clock miles up, i may ring up and see how much the turbo will inflict my insurance :)

Hmm, ive got 1 years no claims, cup172, £2200.

And mines a factory car, not a self built hybrid, with only mod being exhaust...

it hasnt been self built its been done by a garage with all receipts kept, plus how old are you? do you have ur pass plus? or max driver? how many miles is your policy? mines 6000 now half of average and i have a 500 quid excess plus i live in a really good estate now total population of about 25 people and its garaged so it isnt exactly extrodinary plus my previous renewal was 1400 i just haggled them down because AnA qouted me cheaped,

all i can say is... score
