Default Hey gang

Well this is my 1st post on here. I dont own a subaru yet, but i am loooking into getting 1 early next year.
With so many models around, its hard to choose the right one, but i like the look of the classics more than anything, maybe a nice WRX??

Ive been looking around at insurance, being 25 and having 3 yrs nc, the best price i could get was around £1200, Can it go cheaper

any info is always welcome

Dave

Find a number for Gary Moulson at Keith Micheals...... he does three cars for me now... excellent rates on all three.....
I needed cover for one day to get another vehicle home, he did it for me within ten minutes, and for a fortnight, for FREE!!!!!

Hi Dave and welcome to Scoobynet!

As per what RON said, try Gary Moulson at Keith Michael's. He demolished all quotes that i had previously and got mine for 825 quid fully comp with mods.

His direct number is (or was the last time I rang) 0208 2880275

Alternatively, my 2nd best quote was from Greenlight Insurance - Greenlight Insurance Car Insurance, Modified Car Insurance, Travel Insurance.
You can get them on 01277 263030

Good luck and hope you get something sorted.

I agree. Keith Michaels all the way. Gary is a scoob enthusiast too so is more knowledgable than your average insurance clerk!

i hear of greenlight quite alot on other forums.

i also see alot of classic wagons for sale, am i right in saying they're the same, engine, perfomance and insurance wise, but just a different body type?
