Hey all..
Interested in getting a second car soon..
How does insurance work on converstions? Do you just have insurance on say a 2lt Cav or Astra GTE?
As that is where the engine came out of? Is that how it works??
I will be doing a max 5000 miles a year in this second car.. mainly to and from work..
Cheers

i think the nice tescos lady got confused when i told her the engine had about 300% the power of before and put down 30%.
either way she just asked percentage of power increase expected

the quote for the astra get was £150 less than the corsa, as the corsa is then modified and also he said its cos its lighter and more dangerous!!
