Very nice looking motor m8......love that DBM......Slightly biased cos mines that colour.....As for insurance £5500 is shocking but not surprising.....One of my kids has a Fiesta 1.25 Zetec and the cheapest he could get was £1500 and he is 18.

What insurance Company r u with? I have a sport special and wanna get a turbo bonnet for it. I'm with the privillage (cheapest at £777 with protected no claims - i'm 21) but they won't allow any mods at all until i'm 25!
looking to change next year as couldn't find any company to insure me with mods & protect my no claims - I only want a bonnet FFS!
Cheers!
