Hi Guys
I have just lowered my GSi and I need to renew my insurance, can anyone give me some numbers or websites for some good companies? (especially for modified cars as people are turning me away) thanks all

P.S - I put some cheap £60 GMax springs on the car and that is it, and it drives like a bouncy castle, it is bumpy and horrible.....Can anyone suggest anything, did I need to get a kit or can I add anything to make it drive nicer?

If you upgrade your shock absorbers as well it should help the ride a bit but you're always going to have a harsher ride lowering your car.

It's crap, I have been in other lowered cars and they are not like this, its quite scary when you are at 100mph on the motorway, it feels like Im gonna take off!
Surely there is another way of lowing cars (more expensive maybe) so you dont shit yourself over every bump in the road.
Anyway, any insurance numbers?

Thanks for you replies anyway and thanks Wanted Corsa??!?!

Lowering cars is always going to affect the drivability, why do you it lowered ?!

Insurance companies theres loads.

U don't have to declare the springs, it wont make a great deal of difference

Try diamond (for birds only) or greenlight or admiral or elephant or adrian flux or cis or etc etc
