nice cars, handle well,
chuck a vtr box on it
better acceleration and stronger boxes.

How much is your insurance out of interest?

Fair one not that expensive, but youd expect a 28 year old to be paying less than £600 tpft wouldnt ya!

Chuck in a 1.1 box. I believe the ratios are much smaller so acceleration is quicker. Can be fitted it a couple of hours........... and my local dismantler has 55 in stock at £50 a pop lol cant go wrong lol

Looks a tidy motor, they handle pretty damn well. Are they as bad for rear axle bushes as the 205, 309 and 206's are?

Quick question, I tried an insurance quote, at our age, our no claims, our millage, our everything, came in at £1500, then I declared the mods, and the cheapest was £4700?

Who's it insured with?
