I hate the shape but I've always been a ford and vauxhall fan. But for a little as that plenty fun can be had.

why are jap motors so expensive to insure?

is it purely down to parts cost?
Cle

Mainly because there imports

Nope. Parts.

Only the JDM ones are imports. LMAO

Can't knock a good old Swift GTi! Have fun! :cool:

Are they not imports? Its unusual for the UKDM to have a "fast" model lol

As for insurance, the whole thing about parts being more expensive is just a scam - example, ALL celica GT4's are built in the same factory in Japan (so technically they're all imports lol), with only a few minor differences between export and JDM models - and ALL parts can be ordered through dealers. Its just an excuse for the insurance companies to charge more.
