insurance

  • I have been saving up to buy this car for sometime but I am also under the age of 25 so i was wondering if it was unreasonable to buy the car due to insurance costs? Should i buy it and garage it? my only worry is that the longer i wait the more miles are put on the cars out there.


    thank you for such an helpfull site and active forum,

  • These cars are far less fun to leave parked than to drive!!


    If you are collecting, the Garage Queens and once in a while drivers won't gain many miles over the next few years.


    If you are a driver, the fun miles you DID NOT drive will not pass by again. (Like passing up sex?)


    I'm a driver, not a collector (in case you have not noticed). My 840 has 135,000 miles on it and provides a very enjoyable ride to work and back everyday. If I ever wear it out I'll just buy another and try to wear it out too!


    What ever you choose, Enjoy.

  • Dont worry


    I am very much a driver, having a car stuck in the garage is just a way to tease yourself, but paying a ton in insurance is less fun but you do what you gota do.


    thanks for the advice,


    jeff,


    P.S.
    Is there a strong community in the CA-west coast?

  • There are strong communities in both the Bay area and LA

  • Hi there,


    I'm 22 and i'm managing to run an 850 CSi (just about!!).


    My insurance was about £1500 this year (4 years ncb) - I know people that pay more for insurance on modified escorts!!!!
    The reason I found the 8's in the first place was because it was so much cheaper to insure than an M3!!!!!!!!


    Ring round a few places and get some quotes - it's worth it!!!
