Which WRX. The new one, or an older one?

I estimate insurance will be around the 2000-3000 mark.

I had an Impreza when I was 20, and insurance was just under £2K. I now (@23) have a modified Skyline, and it is about the same.

I had a 21 yr old on a WRX once! Made a hell of a dent in the aluminium bonnet! LOL

Seriously though, you'll be lucky, unless you have NCB from the age of 17. Then they might take a look

Thumbs up

My best was with a company called Allen&Allen No' 0208 939 3900 they even beat Tesco on an import.Try limited miles that always helps also if you don't use it for work 9-5hrs.
