I switched from a Skoda Fabia VRS 1.9TDI to an Audi S3 with lots more power and which was worth over 4 times
what the skoda was. Insurance dropped to 400 a year from 700 for the Skoda. I have no idea why? ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

When I passed my test at 24 I was getting quoted over 3 grand for 1.2 Corsa's, adding my dad to the insurance brought it down by about £500 (to £2800) but it was still way too much. I've had my license for 4 years now, and have one partial fault accident on my record.
I'm guessing a C30's shit? The R-design has a bodykit, and I think a decent sound system with an AUX connector etc. I've got the base model which doesn't even play MP3 CDs Anything bigger than the 1.8L engine will be too rapey on insurance tho.

Just ran a quote myself, it's £250 more than I'm paying for that one. Try the pre-facelift petrol model. |

Should go ok, our car is a 1.6i hatchback and it goes well enough. Spares everywhere for them, fuel costs reasonable
and no turbo, DPF or DMF to bork and cost you a limb or two. Why not. Aftermarket silencer suggests modded/thrashed.
Check all the fluids etc, common faults here...
