the same as on the log book it says 20vt... if you go for a classic policy they would probably hold more value

VTs are group 18, LEs group 19 and Pluses group 20.
I just don't get how young people can get quotes like that for these cars. I'm 30, never had an accident, have no points, hold an advanced driving licence, am entitled to around 50% NCD and still struggle to come in much under £650...

I was 20 when I first got my 20vt. Insurance was suprisingly cheap iirc, sub £1000 I think.

When i turned 18 i got my 16vt through Admiral Multicar, putting my dads car as the second and it was surprisingly cheap. The weird thing is, i couldn't find a company who would insure me for less than 3k on a 20vt at the time!! My 20vt was also group 19 and my Bravo HGT is 15, yet all the quotes come out exactly the same

A lot of it must be down to where you live. I live in a small town in the Cotswolds & park it off the road. I'm 25 just 1 year no claims & my premium is £480.

Speak to Rosey, 19 years young and just about to enter coop ownership complete with a £2.1k insurance bill. Rosey - surely Ryans 330bhp coop would be more still?! I've got to give full marks for commitment there
