What would you consider an ok price for insurance on a 172? I got a quote of £1500 from admaril FC and im 20 so 22 should be a fair bit cheaper

well im paying £700 on the sport with 1 claim 3 points and 0ncb

so £900 when i get my 1year ncb would be good on a 172 but the good ones are about 6k

Could maybe try looking into a phase 1 172 about W or X reg as I think they come in at about what you are looking to spend. For clios ask fad he is like a walking bible on the things

a black mondeo estate, or a audi 2.6 v6 estate.

id choose one of them
one of them will leave you with £1500 to do it up "mondeo"
or the other will use all 3k but is perfect anyway

By time your cars fixed & sold im sure it will be gone. Just to give you an idea tho. If I was after a diesel for around £3k id be looking for one of those.

130 miles isnt THAT much!
