One of the best bits of the job, providing your not a lazy git. :wink:

Haha, definately not lazy. Been working sixty hour weeks for a year, add to that I'll be working for myself and in my favioute place (the car!) I think I've got a match made in heaven here. I can't wait!

Anyone any comments on my figures?

If you could let me know where I've messed up that would be lovely :). Thank you!

Phoned around a few places for insurance today. Insurance isn't cheap! Best quote I've had is £3500. I was aiming for around £2500 but I'll keep looking.

That's on a Skoda Octavia though, perhaps I could try and find something with a lower insurance group?

You live in a hot spot area I'm afraid, North Lancs has previous in terms of a poor track record.

I presume you've tried tradex?

I'm only 24 and they only quote for over 25s I think.

I'm 25 in six months, by the time my licence comes through that will be 4 or 5 so it may be beneficial to wait until then.

Or I could hire the car until July, will have a chat from the chappie at my base!
