How old where you then, Skruntie?
Would have cost a pretty penny to insure if you were young.Born in 61. Car was B Reg (Aug 1st reg) so I must have been 23.
Insurance was £365, so a £1 a day to insure.
Bonus was I got a 7.5% discount and paid £6520.20 for it.
Final straw was after filling with petrol I went to start the car, turned the ignition and the wireing loom under the bonnet went up in smoke.
With in a week I did a part ex, got a brand new Sylvia, and got £6500 alowed on the GTE 8 months old with 8K on the clock.
Wish I still had the Sylvia, it handled so well.
2 new cars in the space of 8m months, wish I never bought the Astra, made me realise how mush I hate FWD and the brakes with the servo on the passenger side didnt help the brake performance.
