More than that I would say. Modifications do not count for much but a 2.5 has got to add the £'s

How mush does something like that cost to Insure? would it be more than my annual £300??

Pete
I dont think insuring a modified scoob costs much more than a standard scoob. I shopped about and got 200 cheaper than I was paying for my standard. I now have a type r to similar spec as above...... just to add lol..............

The insurance cost for 2.5 has dropped dramatically over the last 12 months, my most recent quote is nearly 50% less than last year, that is without any change in circumstances/mods.

As for your cars worth, I would say between 9 and 10k, on the right day.
