Cheap pocket rocket but be aware that most have been ragged to shite and will be rusting by now.

As for insurance...good luck

no chance would you get insured for less than 2500 at that age, they are classed as a high risk car.

Well there are 19 year olds with 1 NCB insured on the same engine in a Corsa, which is even more high risk from the perspective of insurers...

Don't expect a great quote, but I *can* see it being under £2k...

It is hard to find a mint one, but they're so cheap now that you can buy one with rusted arches etc and pay a few hundred to get em done.
