Can they do this to me?

Are you not going to fix the car at all?

In your situation I'd just get another shit car to use, but the box seems the problem there really, admin fee should only be about £15 or so.

As for the corsa, its the same power I think, so has a higher power to weight ratio, plus its seen as a young persons car which bumps the insurance up. Look for an old mans car and it should be cheaper.

Can't really afford it at the moment! had a lot of things to pay for and the bus to work is £20 a week, only a touch more than fuel :/

Yeah the box is £90 and the admin is £15, they won't just move the box between my 306 and a new car as they're 'tailored to each car' (wank excuse to rinse my wallet)

Any recommendations on a car (needs to have ECU for box - hence why I can't have an XUD) that is a diesel, cheap and not too big? :/

Thanks

Ah ok, fair enough then. I didn't realise the boxes had to be on an ECU engine, thought they just used motion sensors and stuff but obviously not. That's really gonna limit your car search tbh.

However I have a nice Vectra CDTi here... Comes with pipe and slippers so cheap to insure.

but in reply to one of the above comments i have swaped insurence from gti to XUD and got a huge discount on the current preimium . so it only gets more expensive isnt true

Agreed! I've also had a refund from the insurers when swapping cars, more than once.
