    price differences?

    im a bit confused, im looking around at cars and insurence but wont actuly buy a car till im near to my test.

    for a 1.2cc corsa b insurence is around £1300

    but for a peageot 106 1.1cc its £1600

    why is there a big price difference for a lower size engine?

    also i would prefere to get a 106, the insurence is guna be high anyway, could i share my insurence with say my dad since he drives a company car even though he uses its for social as well as buisiness? some of my mates share their insurence with their parents but my mum keeps telling me its illegal???

    any advice would be great, cheerz

    A - Peugeot are french shit, easily stealable, hence the higher premium

    B - Dont be a mummy / daddys boy and have them insure you, its not illegal, but you'll have 0 no claims when they no longer insure you.

     Go for something insurance group 1 for the first year, fiat panda etc

    yeah i know i cant get any ncb's but for a year or two that should do me until i leave college nd go into full time work, then i would be able to pay the full price. and i think just bein a year older and holding a licence for a year more will drop the insurence at least a hundred. and since its legal then great, cheerz

    the corsa:

    if its a corsa b then it will have at least an immobiliser and coded stereo

    if its a c then it will have an alarm, immobiliser and coded stereo.

     all the 106's came with shit all in the way of security unless you bought the gti? and they aint much better.


    Put an SR20DET in it...
