What's the problem?Originally posted by RichardCranium View PostI just filled in the "Insurance Estimate For This Car..." and got:

£1,500 to insure something with power not far short of an F1 car with the additional risks that brings doesn't seem too bad to me.
When I were a lad I worked with an apprentice maintenance guy who paid way more than that to insure a Vauxhall Nova GTE, I'm sure it was £2.5k.Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Insurance cost in the UK is beyond silly these days.Originally posted by darmstadt View PostI just did that for mine in the UK (as far as I could) with prices just for me ranging from 1,169 up to 2,115. Don't pay anything like that here
I'd never defend uninsured drivers, but with the prices it's no surprise that there are so many of them.
