he paid £18,000~$36,000 for that car new.
to insure her in it for one year would cost a third of the price of the car.
that's why i chose a B16, i would prefer either an H22 (sleeved) or a K20A preferably but the insureance cost would easily top the total cost of the car.

Oh they have a total differnt way of doing it.
We do still have a tag for bigger motors sometimes but alot is based on wrecks theft etc. Hondas are a bugger to insure my truck 4L I6 is 500 year while my honda is over 1500. both base coverage.
I went from 1.5 to for now 1.8 if mine isn't sold it'll be a 2.1L next spring.
I would reccomend just calling around and asking it might be you modded so you get flat rate of XXX be it a b16 or big block 454 kinda deal.
