Ok to do the test in a 'high performance' car?

I got a Civic 1.8SES recently, which Quinn Direct told me qualifies as a high performance car. They won't insure me on it.
Is it ok to do the test in such a car?

I don't think anybody would class a 1.8 civic as a high performance car.

There would be no problem doing your test in such a car.

Provided you are insured to drive the car. There's no problem.

I was going to do it in my Levin :rolleyes: But tought the tester would fail be before even sitting into it !!

So got a lend of a ADI driving instructors Honda Jazz for the day never drove it before and still passed with only a few blues

Cheers lads. I definitely don't see it as high performance either.
What company would insure me do you think? I have been driving a year here and 4 in Canada. I'm 30.

It's not but this is Ireland!

If you can afford the insurance there's no law against doing the test in Bugatti Veyron.

The bad news is there's only one way to know and that's by getting the Golden pages out and working through it.

I have a Japanese imported Honda civic and had problems finding a company to insure me, went with XS insurance, the only catch is if you have an acciendent you must pay the excess which is usually about 2000-3000, but the premiums are very low.
