Forgot to mention the main part, the engine lmao.

Will be ordering it in the new year, its quite a beast. Full race ready engine, (will have ti build it all myself  ;D ) and it works out about 2332cc , so basically a 2.4 litre. Looking at around 190-200 whp, which dunt sound a lot but with around 350 pf of torque, in a car that weighs less than a ton, il be aiming for 12 second quarters eventually 

I said

2332cc , so basically a 2.3 litre

EFA.

insurance company's will round the cc UP to the neareast litre, so will be classed as 2.4, and theres a transporter engine thats 2370cc which is classed as the 2.4 model which is the engine i will tell the insurance has been put in it.

Who is right? Obviously not you if you are about to lie on your insurance form.

Last time I spoke with an insurance co, they wanted a precise number.

You fail. Try again.

2349cc - 2.3litre, 2350cc - 2.4litre

Simple mathematic rounding up/down principle?

[saaby93]

Have you seen the honda jazz ( theres anoyther thread about it )
1.2 is 1198cc
1.4 is 1339cc

The 1.3 hybrid is 1339cc + a motor

Who's right

Well, are you putting a race engine into the vehicle, or a Transporter engine?

[mike88]

I'm not putting anything into anything, he is.

1149cc Clio- 1.2, apparently.

FFS are we really discussing this? Just tell the insurance company the volume to the nearest 1cc and let them decide what they want to write on their forms.

As a marketing exercise, most car companies round up the figures to make the engines sound bigger. So whatever engine badge you see on the back of a car, you can pretty much guarantee that the actual size is smaller.

Isn't this basic maths?

[anonymous-user]

Nobody because your penis length is proportional to the CC capacity and therefore having an extra CC in any argument ergo means you are the real man..

Really, is PH becoming this bad?

This is primary school stuff, your pal sounds like a right thicko.

The main reason for this topic was the comment he made,

"The insurance company will round it UP".

I have no idea but call BS.
