As some of you know i have been hunting for the perfect MX-5, one thing i have forgot to do is look for insurance properly, in regards to a Eunos Roadster (Jap MX-5) at least.

Now the best quotes i have come up with are much higher than a UK model i.e £1200 w/ £750 excess vs £800 w/ £350 excess (fully comp).

Now the challenge, whoever gets a quote for me below £1000 i will give £20 to, cash, cheque whatever is best for you, that simple.

And in the event that someone gets a lower quote afterwords, i will give them £10 as well.

So £30 on the table who wants a stab.

Hi guys, just got home, will give a few of those a try, bell came back with 850 on a Uk car with my parents on and a £350 excess, and i'm a civil servant.

import through bell was the £1200 quote, but as said before an eye watering excess.

Might stick with the Uk spec tbh, although the offer still stands.
 
Oh forgot to add a UK Turbo was only £50 more than a UK N/A i.e. £900ish

Weird how insurance works.

Also seeing as how sub £1000 is more of a pipe dream on a Eunos than 1st realised, i will now pay £50 to the person who gets me a quote sub £1000 on a Eunos with a sub £600 excess including 2 adults if need be, who have held licences over 20 years with no points.
 
they'd give lower quotes for n00b RWD drivers at this time of year, rather than, say, in November as that seems to be the start of the culling season for cheap RWD cars.

Whys that? Most peoples insurance runs for a whole year.
And a whats the issue with rwd cars? I know they are different to drive and there is a learning curve but most non hatchback cars were rwd up until the mid 1980's and you didn't get people dying in their millions come rainfall, its just what you are used to and appreciating what you can and cannot do with a particular drivetrain, and the mx-5 is hardly rapid.

I think a UK MX5 is the way forward to be honest, but in the grand scheme of things its not too bad, i was getting quotes of £1600 on 1 litre fiestas at 17.
