I know for a fact that you could insure an MX5, which would literally run rings around that XR4i...

And by the way "sentimental value" is just a cop out. One day you'll grow up a bit and realize a car is nothing more than a hunk of metal - I thought it wouldn't happen to me, but it did, and that's the day the for sale sign when up in my supra.

You'll probably do the same.
Look m8 i dont want to get into keyboard wars with your at all, one thing sentimental value means alot to people who give a shit (Unlike you!)
two, yea a mx5 might run rings round my 4i but so frick i like my car, mx5s are not in my price range either and i can pretty much put my car on the fact i cant get insured on one if i cant get insured on a 1.3 mk4 escort

also in my short little life, i have driven 6 cars and owned 5 in total and one of them being a mini cooper s works racing round croft when i was 15

A) Were a moron for spending that much on a car you plan to use in 5 years
B) For spending that much on a Ford that doesn't have a Cosworth badge on it
C) Will be able to afford insurance. If I at 17 can get a quote of a touch over 2 grand on a BPU'd Aristo with every mod including the kitchen sink declared living in south london, there is hope for you.

I'm not trying to ruin your thread, I'm just trying to help (and werid as that must seem ). If you want me to stop, then I will,but you'll have to face the music one day mate .
Dont call me a moron, i wasnt claiming my car to be in the £00000 price range im saying i paid NOTHING FOR IT AT ALL....... and aristo at 17 is just absolute BOLLOCKS with a capital B, like said above no insurance company will insure me on a 1.3 escort for less that £2500 and thats completely standard, yea i know your are trying to give advice but pal your sounding like a complete tosser doing so.........
