Yup

For me, most cars come under £500 now after a bit of tweaking. My DC2 is ~£450, for an S2000 it's more like £1500!

Personally, I'd never spent over £700 on insurance, too big of a hit

 

[Sin_Chase]

I insure my S2000 for 400 quid (+/- 20 quid, cannot remember what this years renewal was)

I have a JE post code though

What are your insurance quotes like for the S2000?

haven't checked recently and don't really care too much.

it was around 1100 last time I checked. but that was over 6 months ago and i have never gone to a specialist seeking a quote.

It's nothing to do with the BHP.

S2000s are notoriously expensive to insure anyway, a problem which is compounded by a bad post code.

was it Fox who said that an LP640 was cheaper for him to insure than an s2000? I tried myself a while ago and found the same rang true for me. mental really.

24, 6yrs driving, 6yrs NCB, 0 claims.

Honda S2000 - £713.83
EP3 - £503.50

my EP3 is around 600 to insure. 26, driving since 2004, clean record.

I have come to accept that higher insurance is simply a cost I will have to deal with when I get one.

I like your attitude!

I wish S2000s weren't so LOLexpensive to insure for me.

It's probably a good thing though, else I'd be doing lots of pondering..

Hmm,.

Just had a quote for £525 on an S2000, much better

Tesco want £6,937.36 from me.

 

[NathWraith]

S2K is around £1300 for me. Too much.

Go for it son!

Avoid mainstream insurers on an S2000, they will just deny business with wild quotations. Call some specialists direct.

Ignoring the JE post code for a moment Adrian Flux insure me through Groupama for £423 (Double checked), considering the vehicle is modified and declared on the policy I think it's a pretty good price. Even on much slower/cheaper/crappier cars I save very little in terms of insurance.

 

[rjk]

cheapest comparison site quote I can get is £849

I would call greenlight as I am currently with them but the S2000 is on their exclusion list.

What are the best companies to go with on these? Flux?

considering you are exactly two whole days younger than me according to your profile, this is rather irritating.

I am going to put that down to your location entirely

 

[Dup]

I'd be driving an EP3 again if it wasn't for the insurance. Modified MX5 = £1000, EP3 = ~£2000, ST220 = ~£1000

DR20 doesn't help matters, but I'm 27 with 5 years NCD in a "B" grade postcode (BB).

 

[Ev0]

Insurance for me on the S2000 wasn't that bad, £100 cheaper than I paid last year on my WRX!

I am old at 31 but it was £360.

Well they can't go over 30MPH in the channel islands so I guess that makes insurance a hell of a lot cheaper.

 

[Muffin`]

Well they can't go over 30MPG in the channel islands so I guess that makes insurance a hell of a lot cheaper.

And a major crime is someone dropping litter

 

[Rybo89]

S2000 is £1900 for me from normal insurers
350z is £900-1k

Would prefer the S2000 but I would go for the 350Z for obvious reasons.

No economical cars in the channel islands then...!
