Matts Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) After owning countless n/a's and a GT which is no longer! I finally purchased a Glanza! It's a 97 totally standard and unabused! It has only covered 105k km's with the cambelt and so forth been replaced! Need's registering with it being a fresh import! Hopefully will be at JF2 in her however insurance is causing me many many problems! She may have to remain stored until December/Jan 5pcs oem matsJDM flareClimate controlNumber plate surroundsOEM rear speakersNoticed today also the car has a full set of basically brand new öhlins adjustable coilovers!! I do have many great plans for the car but unfortunately it may be a while! Edited June 9, 2015 by Matts Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Matts Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 Looking good man Whats the issue with insurance ? age ? be ashame to store until dec/jan James Thanks man! Oh boy the issue where do i begin! The issue i think is having 2 non fault accidents! Which is super annoying as they are non fault! Lost the EP82 GTT through one and the other accident i lost the Celica VVTi through! And also being only 21 with no no claims doesnt help either! I have 2 years named drivers experience but no one seems to accept that! And the other 2 policys i ended up cancelling so never recieved my no claims! However im due 1 years no claims in December from the Sportif daily! So im hoping this will help me out alot! If anybody could shed some light on this?? Does 1 years NCB make a difference!?

Dale SR Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Your Glanza looks mint. Very good purchase. Best of luck with your insurance buddy :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aaronb93 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Nice glanza dude I'm on the same boat as you being 21, I'm waiting until September before I get my 1 year NCB so I'm using a 07 ibiza until then.I was quoted like 6k to insure my glanza with adrian flux, after talking to to a supervisor they brought it down to £2000 but I it was one of them stupid limited millage policies and couldn't do more than 5k miles a yearSilly numbers game unfortunately .

drongo boi Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Good to see u back in a starlet dude!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BMX-RIG Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Clean car! Hopefully youll have more luck with this one. With insurance, i have also had a look for quotes, being 18 with a year and a half of drivibg experience and 1 years NCB i was quoted £1400? So i guess with a years NCB it should make allot of difference! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoJo_228 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 1 year NCB should make a difference to my insurance in Oct/Nov - I had my accident last year (at fault)... and shitty insurance sky high.. and mine will hopefully be coming down a couple of hundred after 1 year NCB, well from the quotes I did a few weeks ago etc! So you may be lucky Quote Link to post Share on other sites
adzy Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Insurance is never fun, I'm 22 and I had a small accident 3 years ago, and thought it was great when my renewal didn't go up, it just hasn't came down since! Lol.I'll have 3 years ncb next month and have been driving for over 5 years so hoping to get a much better price than I'm currently paying!Also I found adding my parents to the policy used to bring it down a bit, worth trying Glanza looks sweet! Will be keeping an eye on this! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Calum122 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I literally refused to pay those silly prices they wanted for a piece of paper. I decided I couldn't be bothered with a car so just rode a bike for years instead. I'm lucky, 21, no years no claims (never driven since I passed when I was 17) and only payed £800 for my GT. Didn't think that was too bad. Was annoyed that my brother pays £220 for the same car though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoJo_228 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Jeans isn't staying for much longer or being boosted ha. Saving up to move out and buying an economical whip ;)! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RobSR Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) Car looks clean. Regarding insurance, i don't have any no claims due to not being able to take them off my company car, and insured my V at 23 with no issues. Try LV, thats who i usually use. Any yea if its running Ohlins, legend! Can i buy them haha? Edited June 10, 2015 by RobSR Quote Link to post Share on other sites
