i know i do want to xe it but its like paying out 3200 just to get it converted and insured where if i sell mine i have the cash for the new car and then just have to insure it so works out cheaper that way
what about the people with vts's what are your opinions?

Put a 1.6 in it for now?
£1800 TPFT is pointless on insurance for now TBH

Still you will probably get raped on insurance going from a 1.2 to a 2.0...
Have you tried insuring a 1.6?
