i was at lights last year and a golf got rite up behind me reving the nuts off his shed,there was a stunner in the passenger seat and 2 of his mates in the back,anyway he kept reving so i give a lil blip witch (it was own fault lol) he then gunned it 2 redline and at this point couldnt see his lights behing me.i shouldnt have done it but i smashed the noise maker in to the carpet and as i let off there was a nice flash in my mirror .lights turned green and i drove off(not fast) just normal and thought he wasnt that bad giveing me a flash knowing i would beast him off the lights but it wasnt........
the flash was the afterburner kit kicking in and setting fire to his number plate lol silly boy

I've got 2 Imprezas insured on different policies:

93 WRX 325/302 - £258 TPFT, 10+ yrs NCB
05 WRX Wagon PPP - £370 FC, 5 yrs NCB

These are prior to the recent increases though, so we'll see.

Anyone under the age of 25 should only be able to insure a Daewoo Matiz.

I think it's good that young people can insure these sort of cars but enthusiasts are penalised as boy racers which is wrong, my insurance is low because I have owned quick cars in the past, I have gone from, 1L Peugeot to an impreza I have words up gradually over the 6 years I have been driving

what younger people need is an insurance that only caters for enthusiasts so that if you are young and can prove that your on a site such as this and have a past of sport/fast cars then it should be easyer to insure a scoob.as in posts before not all young drivers are speed demons

1600 quid well ill be selling up when my renewal's due then i pay 105 pound a month 7years no claims 3 points and ive just turned 28...hopeing mine will go down.thats with adrian flux

yes and no, its hard to explain, although my father has a motor trade policy it costs £800 a year, third party fire and theft, i on the policy too, as long as my car is registered in the company name i can drive it, lol been pulled over numerous times in 2.0 16v novas when i was 20 with 0 NCB, and show them my certificate and its all fine! lol weird because i wouldnt really be covered on a subaru impreza at 22 but it still seems to be "Covered" when it comes to actually driving it on the road.

i dont pay a bean for the insurance because its my old mans traders policy and i work for him. yer if i had my own insurance on my scooby id never ever get insured in a million years !
