Braad Posted December 16, 2010 Posted December 16, 2010 Howdy all.Posted up on Tgtt but I hope to use both sites! Planned to get a Starlet turbo this time last year but insurance held be back, I under-estimated a 1.3 turbo!.. Was looking at qoutes around £2200-3000 (Also on a apprentice wage). That never happened and so I ended up buying a Zetec-s.Over the last few months I planned to get rid of the Zs due to becoming 20 and picking up something with abit more power, done another quote on a Glanza and the price was still in the £2k region, screw that. Up untill I found Sky i'd been seriously considering a Crx Vtec, they were the only other car with abit of power and the fun factor that i could insure! But then I found Sky and they gave me a cracking price on a Glanza, and so the story begins.So plan is now to get xmas out the way, sell the Zs and buy a Glanza in Jan. Plan to spend around £3.5/4k. Probably the only time ever I actually want Xmas over and done with, can't wait!Cheeeers. Quote
Bluebear Posted December 16, 2010 Posted December 16, 2010 Have you thought about getting a GT Turbo? They seem to be cheaper on insurance than the Glanzas, however, not everyone likes the look of them. Quote

Just need to get this Zs sold! Quote
