Mk1 Bmw Compact
Discussion
Hi guys, been on here forever but never made a readers' cars thread...
Now i need to as i need insureance help!
I'm decided to go the modifed car route, and replace my 16 year old suspension with some nice bilstein b8's matched with eibach progressive lowering springs.
I'm 25 had my licence for only 3 years, and have 0 no cliams bonus.
It's currently SORN while i start the modding process.
I've just rang brentacre, following advice from a friend and have been told the car's is not worth enough to be insured with any of the insureance brokers the company works with...
I've also got other mods planned, including a engine swop next year(!).
Pic's of ticky the little gold bimmer to follow, along with nice new shiny parts.

Exactly, thats a lovely idea!
And it's weight!
The compact engine swop would be a whole bunch lighter.
Anyway, i rang Adrian Flux today, spoke to a top bloke, 50minute phone call and dispite my circumstances got it insured in it's current form(!)
Thank god i'm 25 so now allowed modified car insureance; price was a bit steep but it'll be insured once the susupension is completely fitted and it's no longer SORN at the start of next month.
Also i'm good to fit a custom stainless exhaust, it's blowing and need a new one, so might as well go custom stainless
.
Plans for engine swop will have to be pushed back due to insureance cost, but it'll give me more time to finalise my plans...
