The Search button is a wonderfull thing matey ....... Simply type car insurance and it searches Cruisewirral for topics about car insurance and you can read from other members previous posts (The search button is at the top right of the page) There is a very usefull one about on-line estimates and saved my GF 700 pounds Click here.............. Hope that helps ??

fast enough for u,there are plenty of equally fast cars out there that wont cost u that much to insure.surely there are 2.0 CD vectras out there? get a quote on one of them,go on,humour me. Itll be 1k cheaper at least i bet,then u just pick up the bits it has from a scrappy,or owners forum,whats it got?? white dials?a spoiler?those the only differences?even if theyre not,its still cheaper to buy a non sports model and mod it up to SRI spec

The sri has uprates suspension bodykit spoiler differnet alloys better 0-60 times, (dunno how).
but i do have to agree for someone like yourself it would of been clever to buy a 2.0 cdx or even a club just to start with.
Think you have been a bit soft really. You will be selling that car within 6 months mark my words.
Also if you cant afford the insurance you will have no spare cash for petrol which it will drink i know mine does. and mines about the same weight but a bit more power and i dont drive like a loony most of the time i know if i plant my foot i can see the needle drop to the red from a quater tank.
You would of been better off getting a 1.8 astra or 1.6 corsa or even a 1.8 corsa which would be faster than your vectra.
Or even as said above the escort/ mondeo 130 spec engine is 136bhp with is the same as your engine and it would be in a lighter car.
Dont get me wrong i like the vectra SRI and the gsi 2.6 V6 GSi. but for your age and experience if the car dont kill you the running costs will.
Get some pictures up and shows us what where missing out on.
(p.s i'll have you a race sometime always wondered what the eco-wreck engine was like compared to the red-top)
