on a 1.4 i could probably afford alright 1.6 would be dodgy
like id be willing to pay very high insurance but its getting the chance to
ya ring them up over here and they tell you that car has to big of an engine and we cant quote u on it
insurance in ireland horrendus--> i have a 1.2 8v 1994 i'm 27 fare enough its my first insurance and it cost me €2310 thats about £2000 third party
Then u have to take tax into account 1901cc-2000cc--> €639 a year thats about £500
as i said about id pay over 3k for a 2ltr corsa but u find it hard to get a quote.
