Hi there, I'm looking into a 2.0 conversion for my corsa in september, by which time I'll have 1 years no claims and passplus, I'll be 18 (19 in october)
anyone else around my age insured on one of these, or know how much it would be?

Someone with the same age and NCD can have a massively different premium, best to call an insurance company up.

be prepared, you'll be charged at least 2.5k FC IIRC
you wont be experienced enough with fast cars and having a 2.0ltr wont help that just drive safe

I won't be experienced enough with fast cars? I've been racing in grasstrack and tarmac time trials in anything from a 1.3 metro to a 2.2 v6 madza 323 since I was 12 
I'm sure I'm more than capable

£300 - £2000.
It really depends on your circumstances!! There is no "rough" price when it comes to insurance.

Good for you, but racing is different to driving on the road.
I dare say there are more hazards going down the High Street at 40mph than there are on a track at high speeds.
