Id stick with the Cup mate. The GX Sport will be very slow in comparison.

i insured rb5 at 26, only 1 in 50 odd companies would insure someone under 35.
your bound to get it somewhere but it'll cost you

There are plenty of people on Scoobynet around your age who have turbos who probably pay not much more than your Cup. IIRC the cup is Group 16 and the uk turbo is 17.
I insured my MY99 for £1100 at 23 with 3 years NCB
Put a shout out in the insurance section for these people iu speak of
If you can't afford the turbo now then keep the cup. The Sports are dog slow compared to your cup

Hello Sean, I too would be inclined to keep the Clio.
