Insurance - What should I buy?

[Wor Jimmy]

Say I was going to buy a 306, what should I get?
Trying to look up insurance atm but need a solid base to work off, I know i may buy something Totally different in the end but.. meh
I would look for a Diesel.. 306 phase 1.. but what's the most common?

If the prices are too high I am sticking to my bike

F*CK THIS. Prices were all wrong. building a trike! lol

[Dum-Dum]

realistically any of the turbo diesels especially the 3drs cost too much on insurance as alot of yoofs bought them because they are only in group 5 and then either tuned the nuts off them and crashed or couldnt handle lo-os and crashed meaning that they are a higher risk car than say a honda jazz.

IIRC the 1.8 is one of the better buys insurance wise as yoofs get the smaller engines if they cant afford the big ones or manage to scrape the money to insure a xsi or gti so the sort of people who crash dont drive 1.8s

5 door d turbo cant be much, as long as you dont live in a dreadful area code!

I'm 19 been driving since April and I've got a 1.8 5dr for £900 fully comp with LV... No no claims bonus or anything

[Wor Jimmy]

Well I am 23 in 2 months, And live in the north East. (NE63) this is saying i have just passed my test and no years ncb
(I have a full UK bike licence with 3 years NCB)

Its looking alight to be honest, its coming in at 800-1000

lowest was an estate :: NOT sure on the colour like http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1998-PEUGEOT-3...1350479510

Highest was :: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Peugeot-306-d-...3f2eea91fa

Is this about right for these?

You could try ringing greenlight for quotes on insuring a gti-6, it might not be that bad.

Smart arse.. I've always seen diesel as a by product of petrol lol

[RetroPug]

Meant to write "whether" haha.
Oh, another thing to consider is that the value of a car makes a significant difference, and not always in an obvious way. The lower the value of the car, the cheaper it is to insure to an extent. Under about 1500 the lower value can actually make the insurance go up, particularly for fully comprehensive cover, so in some cases it may be better value overall to spend more on the car, and less on insurance, and in the process get a nicer example.

The 1.4s and 1.9Ds are the cheapest, old group 4 I think...

Yup 1.9 D turbo is cheaper then a 1.1 corsa from same year By £400

[dwanepipe]

2200 a year insurance for me. For first year of driving. As opposed to a 1.1 corsa n reg 2100. Would pay the extra £100 any day

Many many years ago when i was insuring DT's back when i had small amounts of NCB i found that NADs always use to come out exactly the same prices as DTs
