Cool

Better to get a uk turbo model. A 92WRX is an import and will probally cost twice as much to insure

Guess it depends on your age Leasky27, some places won't go near you on a Turbo if you're too young

How about getting "Driving Experience" in a nice little Nova till you can afford your own insurance?

First off, insurance companies are wise to the "named driver" thing. If you're the main driver, you need insurance in your own name...

Be careful insuring it in your mothers name, with her as the main user and you as the named driver, the companies are aware this goes on (fronting) and if there's a claim it can render your policy null and void. Your best bet is to build up you No claims discount 1st (1 or 2 yrs) and then start looking at a scoob.
