Right, i was hoping to get an mr2 turbo for my next car but insurance is £4000 ! so im getting something a bit more sensible now, and am considering a 1.8 mk4 astra, because they look decent and are only £1400 to insure.

any other suggestions for a car around the same price and insurance group as the astra? or is it about the best ill get for £2.5-4k ?

well 2.0 astra is £2500 insurance so im guessing corrado will be about the same pal.


ill have to go for the 1.8 astra i think... £1400 insurance.

only thing cheaper is a 1.2 corsa which i already have, and i would prefer to be able to overtake milkfloats and such like. thanks for the advice though.
