It's been that way since last year.
It will specifically say on his policy if he has it, which he won't.

Paying £1800 on an XE corsa, I don't mind paying it as that is the kind of price i've paid since i've passed.

Looking at paying near enough 2k for an E46 M3. Would only do it if it was for a car that I thought was worth it. I've only started paying high amounts on insurance since I have had the Mazda which is Group 17 & M3 is Group 20. Not exactly insurance friendly cars plus I have a crash against me.

If was I driving some little shitter I'd be pretty pissed off at paying more than £6-700.

It seems paying it wouldn't be too bad compared to what some people are paying for insurance

323/328s are ok but its not the e36 I want, but then I haven't even driven an e36 so might not like them

Graham, I've looked at E46 M3s (just out of interest 'cos I can't afford one) and the insurance is unreal on them £4k+ for me

Ive got a couple of months to think about it anyway

For a car i wouldnt want to pay over a grand. Im looking at getting an nissan navara though, with signwriting and doing 15000 a year, it was £1800. But that would be for work purposes and would be earning me money.

Wanted a skyline instead of the corrado but the quotes were coming back over £2000.

Corrado was £680 when i 1st got it at 25yrs old, so went with that.

I have that car still. VR6 btw

sometimes if your in a poor area for insurance and you want a nice decent car you have to pay the premium though.

Most I've paid is £2,600 at 24 for a Porsche.
I'm hovering around £1,200 each for the cars I drive now.
The van costs me £700 to insure, limited to 1000 miles a year
