[172Cup]

I honestly think im still 18 and just left college!!!

Mind you, I could not afford the insurances on the WRX, Elise and CUP, so there are down and upsides to every age group!!!

WRX - £1040

Elise - £920

CUP - £940 (I had to start off new insurance for this hence No no-claims)

They are all for the wife (26) and I

172CUP

 

[Gareth]

danny boy what is your insurance like for the cup then? Mine is going to be £1550 with Tesco, 2 yrs ncb, 3 points sp30, fully comp.

Gaz 2130

 

[geoff_clio182]

Im 22 (21 when I got the 172) and now nearly 23

Insurance hurts....alot, especially since Ive had the engine done!

 

[JillyB]

Im 16

 

[Dansta]

geoff!!?! what have you had done?

 

[Sangy]

its £1300 fully comp for me.

Just had a quote on a P1 Scooby which I plan to get next year and then use the Cup as a track/quartermile car.

I cant repeat what they told me...



(£3000!)

 

[Hitman]

Im 21 (that was 8 years ago by the way.....)

Just spent £2k on a new tele when I could of had a new set of 17s on the car as well as some other mods. Am I crazy??

 

[Hitman]

Yeah, we believe you JillyB!!

 

[GR7]

Hitman

£2k on a new television? You must be crackers, as surely there isnt much worth watching these days! Even £1k would have been a bit over the top, but £1,000 on the TV and the wheels might have made a bit more sense!

 

[BenR]

Um.......it might be me......LOL

20 now on my 2nd 172.

had a MK1 when i was just turning 19.......dont sound so good does it ....LOL....

but again, the cars were free (sponsorship) and insurance is company paid, and its a fixed feee in HK, depending on NCB %. 0% and you pay just under £1000...no quibbles no arguements......

But i dont pay that either...hahaha.....me spoilt!???.....i work my little pampers wearing bottom off!

 

[JillyB]

 

[Hitman]

GR - worth it just to watch Top Gear, 5th gear and Driven!

Saying that, I suppose I should have asked for your advice before spending the dosh first!

 

[GR7]

Jilly

Did you ever get round to giving Thomas his washing, waxing and plenty of TLC?

 

[Dansta]

benr check your mail

 

[JillyB]

I acquired 2 men to do it for me Sylvia!

 

[geoff_clio182]

DannyBoy - Only an Induction and ECU Remap along with uprated brakes, lowered and non-standard alloys - the induction alone increased it by £140!

I am in the above bracket, although my 172 has the engine in the wrong place and some fat bits stuck on it.

Everytime I see a 172 driven by babies I imagine them in a coffin quite soon.

 

[davehocking]

thats nice, ta.

Im 21 with no plans for a wooden suit just yet thnx.

 

[RSTDL]

Im 26 - £1000 fully comp - got a lovely quote from Endsleigh before I decided to stick with ASA - £8547 !!!!!! Whats that all about - insurance for a lears jet for a day would be cheaper!

 

[VR6man]

i bought my golf vr6 when i was 21 (my first "real" car)

now being all grown up (23) I have the 172

 

[Pillesnoppen]

b******s. That makes me rather ancient around here at 36. But then again I paid £438 for my Cup insurance, protected no claims, for both me and my wife... Not bad.

 

[m@thew]

24 6years NCD 1 claim no points Tesco £750 (mk2 172)

 

[paddymph]

hmmm, 24 3 yrs ncd, no claims, no points.................£1400! CIA. And that really was the cheapest (Manchester postcode.....damn it!)
