Hi There,

i'm kinda% convinced i'm going to buy a year old, or possibly an ex demonstrator WRX.
I'd love to have the PPP fitted, but the insurance companies are having none of it. It does appear that the problem is my postcode and the lack of a garage, although it probably wasn't a consideration when the building was constructed in 1895, heh heh

To be honest i'm probably best giving it a year and then revisiting the PPP idea, or maybe get an STi.

I guess i'll just have to accept that i'm going to have to get a *slow* standard WRX.

of course i could always just buy a 00 Turbo insure it through Liv Vic and mod the hell out of it, 'cos apparently they don't mind that. Wierd eh??

Thumbs up

Chris

Just glad thats sorted

Most of the time its more fun but I guess it was a serious issue that needs to be taken seriously. If nothing else, there might have been someone else reading the board who was contemplating it, so there's a chance they might be persuaded to now not do after the debate on here.

I'm glad you're not stupid

Welcome

Little Miss WRX>>> I've tried every insurance company i can possibly think if. It's the car and the postcode, they don't go together. That's what i get for being a trendy ******* and living in the west end of glasgow i suppose.

And as for you puff, how dare you make assumptions about me, you have no way of knowing that i'm not stupid :-)
