Right i kind to need a definate answer within the near future please.

I'm currently looking to purchase a Sti Type R, however there is a problem. I'm 22 and can't get insurance. I'd be looking to pay the insurance out-right (within 2k)

Can anyone help.

 

I am going to hazard a guess here and say you will be struggling. You may find a specialist to insure the car, but I would think the cost is going to be more than 2K.

 

No guarantees but the Insurance Factory might be able to quote you.I take it you have tried Greenlight A Plan and Keith Michaels.

 

have u tried adrian flux??

 

Id try for a uk turbo rather than a type R, you should get insured on a grp 17 car without too many problems, a grp 20 car on the other hand.....
Most wont touch you with a barge pole on an STi, over 30's mainly and dont get 3rd party, your throwing your money away, and if the worse comes to worse, just dont buy a scoob, if you think the insurance is expensive you should see the service and running costs

Hi everyone, well thanks for any coments. I really can't see me getting insurance. I've treid so many places, i can't even remember if i'm trying them twice. Saying that i've only been doing them over the internet.

Does anyone on here actualy work for an insurance company that could maybe help me out or give me some advice? Really want this car!

Thanks again,

 

Try greenlight as they're Scoob specialists
I've been with them for 6 years and they've always been the cheapest.

 

Good Luck.
From past experiences most companys won`t even bother if you`re under 30.

would "greenligh" even entertain me, considering i'm under 25!?

 

Keith Michaels could offer you a quote, but you must have experience of a performance vehicle for at least 1 year.

 

The amount some people are willing to spend on insurance just baffles me!

When I was climibing the car tree, I could have had much more pwerfull cars than I had but couldn't face parting with over £1000 of hard earned.

As a result my STi V Type R cost me £800 when I was 31 (and my Clio is much - much less ).
