I could suffer on bravely in any of your 3 previous posts Duke...maybe, just maybe, the Volvo would shade it.:)

A nice 99/00 petrol S80 would be the dream, they are seriously underrated barges IMO

So how has it worked for anyone who bought a bangernomic?

06 Mondeo 2.2 Diesel ST UK import - 840 (identical to our other UK import 06 but an extra 120 to insure for no reason what so ever that the guy on the phone could explain :rolleyes:)

08 Alfa 159 SW 1.9 Diesel - 680
03 BMW 318Ci 2.0 Petrol - 590
07 Renault Kangoo 1.6 Auto - 495



All successive, all fully comp with the same extras, all estimated at a similar value and all with Axa.

I've heard corollas being called lots of things,however,stately was never one of them.:D

A nearly 19 year old car with less than 35,000 miles on the clock has surely led a stately life.

Any chance joujoujou would traverse the country to add it to the collection?:)

If you're so sure what it ain't, how 'bout telling us what it am?

It’s probably ice silver - which is a blue-tinged silver. More silver than blue I guess (or it would be ice blue).

yep, which on my crappy old laptop screen came out as silver - I'd say its a far nicer colour in the flesh

Just goes to show what is the new "Normal".....we now consider ourselves "lucky" to get quotes like these ( as against my 1175 quote, up from 320 ) while there does seem to be a slight reduction in prices/quotes this year, its still a horrific legalized cash cow for insurance shareholder's.:mad:

Tis a bit sad really. That's for a couple in their early forties, clean full licences, full no claims and living in an area that is far from a car theft hot spot.

I got rid of my Impreza turbo 2 years ago because I thought the insurance was nuts at €950 - now it seems almost reasonable for what it was
