When you come to insurance try and do it without giving the reg. no tell them it's a turbo starlet, you can do this on quinn's website, put your reg then adjust it to import or starlet 3/5 door, turbo or N/a/ :)

mate ive done this and insured legit basically ive got a sportif converted with a 4efte from a gt( this makes a difference to the glanza) basically its alot cheeper than insuring a glanza because its not an import and they conbine the sportif with what model of car the engine came out of so basically if id used a glanza engine then it would be alot more because glanzas are generaly dear to insure compared to GTs try sky and adrian flux they will definatly battle it out!
