d.p.n.s 15 Report post Posted June 11, 2007 What are your plans for the project car? BMW series? well it will be while in the making but im wanting to build a allrounder. something i can race,show and drive daily if need be. was toying with the idea of a nissan rb25det as a motor but i think ill go with the sr20 turbo as its lighter and will sit back in the engine bay. was also thinking of a full m3 evo body kit. but like i say it will be a while in the making. cheers dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

martyyn 2 Report post Posted June 11, 2007 Insurance costs in England are VERY dependant on age, but most importantly on where you live and park the car. Once you get to a decent age, having an e30 on classic insurance would cost me no more than a couple of hundred pounds. From memory my 750iL was 350 a year, fully comp.
