Buy this bad boy and pay whatever you must to actually have fun in your vehicle.

Got rid of it last week and am now paying £1000 for a 2011 Fiesta Metal

2013 VW UP. Insurance group 1 car, so as low as it's getting. Tallfag, so it's the only cheap car I can drive.

Still £1700, with a black box.

Car is boring as fuck at low speeds but if you push it past 4k it's honestly entertaining, even with a 59hp 3cyl.

>Still £1700, with a black box.
Where do you live? That's ridiculous, I'm paying a grand for a car with 140 brake and I've only been driving for 7 months. I live in a shithole as well

Outskirts of London, fairly nice area.

As in, near the M25, north of Heathrow. Not the inner city.

1 litre 2002 Corsa C. I paid £3500 for 10 months of insurance.

I really wish that was a joke. 5 years later without a single claim and I'm still paying £900 a year for the fucking thing

Rover 25 (2003+) 2.0 Diesel

56 plate, 1.25 Fiesta "Style"
£800 for my first year, 18yrs old back in 2009

It was a basic car, had 0 power and wasn't a looker, but I miss it so much

>>17804354
At least you guys can cheat the jews with low displacement or rare cars. They tax it by horsepower in Austria, i pay 1300€ for my 88hp shitbox civic.

>>17809127
You don't really have to jew anything once you're older than 21-22 and have a year or two of no claims. Pretty much drive anything you want with sub 1k annual quotes after that.

>10 years no claims with protection
>£185 a year
At least there was no black box shit when I first started, I'd have hated that so much.

Any of you lads done Pass Plus? I've started today and apparently it should knock 10-20% off my insurance, seems like bullshit though.

>>17809352
It literally is bullshit, makes fuck all difference and you're just wasting your money.

>>17809352
You're better off just sticking your parents on the policy as additional drivers, that can knock it down a lot.

curious eastern euro here...

roughly how much would my shitbox cost to insure in bongland (dont need exact numbers just a rough estimate)? 20year old car 1.6litre NA 125horses, 2doors, 2 seats, targaroof. first car on my name, but i had a drivers licence for a couple of years now...

>>17809484
About £2k. Unless you're over 25.

england

jesus you bongs are bonkers. thats almost the money i paid for my gokart. paying 200eur now per year.

feels good to be poor

>>17809532
im over 25, but why is that relevant? shouldnt the years of ownership and/or licence count? imho an older guy with fresh licence is more dangerous then a younger with 1-2 years of driving experience

>an older guy with fresh licence is more dangerous then a younger with 1-2 years of driving experience
I'm pretty sure the insurance companies have solid data that proves otherwise.

>>17809363
I have already done that and have a decent policy as is tbf

>>17809557
It's people claiming against you they worry about. Not your shitbox.

My 2007 KA is getting me buy for £1200 a year. Got a black box in it which is shit.
