hi all, just dropped the mk back on the ground after a long time, and sorted out my insurance renewal online today, a nice sum of £607.38
so its still getting cheaper
picture from today of the Indy after a drive:
mk ind
changed from 17" alloys to team dynamics wrapped in 888 a nice loss of 3.64kg per wheel, as well got a odyssey battery as well
bring on the sun
stu
How old are you? That sounds a lot to me, mine was only £95 this year but I am Old and very fat
Steve.
i am 20 now get's cheaper very year it was just over 1k when i was 17
stu
I would gladly pay what you do to have my good eyesight and youthful reactions back and the lack of fear of dying in a fireball.
Steve
Nice one..
Can I ask what engine it is? Ill hopefully be insuring mine sometime this year when I turn 21..
thank you, it is cheap to insure for what it is.
it's a pinto hopeful till next winter when it will become a zx10r or sr20det
what have you got?
stu
Ive got a 1.6 pinto in my locost(ish)..
Started building it when I was 18 so I always had insurance on my mind- now im 20 I wish id pit a bigger engine in! . But it can always come back
out and get swapped around at a later date!
I thought youd be upgrading to something along the lines of a Duratec or bigger capacity Pinto?
Nice to know theres some younger builders on here- not just then 'older' generation.. ahem!
the 1.6pinto is still fun, but you can all ways upgrade
there is a few young builders on here, they are a lot of fun, but i have had to invest some money in body work and steel, and new wheels after my last
time out lol
the 2.0 pinto is an easy swap over job
stu
Its my first RWD car- so it should be a lot more fun then the daily! Just realised your engine spec is in your sig!! Haha.
Lol- Ill save you the shame of repeating the story and not ask
Well thats what im probs gonna do next winter.. we will see if it makes it onto the public racetrack, ermm i mean road, by then!

Cheer's Stue, im with Adrian flux at the moment but i will give them a ring ...
Comparing my last years cover of 968.00 to your £680 i don't Adrian flux are to bad as i was the same age as you with 3 points ( Not as a result
of my 7) and an 1800cc zetec ....
I also only had the car fully insured for 6 months then had it on off road cover for the winter so it was just short of £500 for the summer and £50
for the other 6 .....
Ryan
they do an off road policy, that sounds good, i need to see if footman James do that
stu
Stu, Im pretty sure all insurers offer this ....
if your 40 and ur insurance is £300 for the year it doesn't mater as much but if your around are age and you don't use it in winter months
you can save good money with of road cover
