Any link to the one your looking at?

Don't know if you can get insured at 18. Best ringing around companies and checking

Your better off gettin a bit of experience first driving or chances are you will end up on the wrong side of a ditch. Its the best advice you will ever get. Also if you insure a car with quinn for a few months then turn around a tell them you are after buying a gt by law they have to insure you. Beware they could give you a stupid quote like 4k.

foggy is right ive been askin everyone were to get insurance etc. and all im being told is the only thing i can do is wait and get some experience under your belt!
would you consider a starlet gi/glanza S and then upgrade to a starlet gt/glanza V
think thats what im going to do...

 

[Foggy]

The glanza s is a great car so much fun to drive and unbreakable (really is) id have a na glanza anyday. I regret selling mine

I paid 1800 with quinn direct when i was 18 with a full licence on my Glanza Turbo, without a no-claims bonus, was well pleased.

on your own name or under your parents name?was this recently or before insurance companys realised what glanzas really were?
that a great quote!

 

[AE86Willy]

glanza s not down as an import??


@xxjack did they not ask if de car was an import or did ya not tell em ??

 

[Foggy]

ya they are i has it insured as a 3door import quinn had no problem insuring me when i was 18

 

[AE86Willy]

might try that then,
how many years ago was it when ya did that?

 

[Foggy]

3 now on a learners permit and no no claims think i was paying 3k on it.

 

[JohnOBrien8]

its risky though if you crash ya might not be insured?
