Try norwich union. I have a 1.4 sport & declared kit, wheels & suspension, 3yrs ncb now (but price wasnt much diff with 1yr) FC with busines use & a second driver with 5 points (none myself though) and I\'ve just renewed it at £442. As you\'re younger I\'d expect to pay quite a bit more than I do but still worth a try!

To be honest not a lot. Mods arnt worth much when selling a car.It needs a fare bit of work doing to and an MOT and i take it its got no tax either i would say £200-400 if your lucky

MOT\'s are due to go up in price in the next few months to £50. i can see the older cars disappering of the roads. also with the new corsa D coming out 6-8 months time the prices of secondhand corsas B/C\'s will drop

If it helps i got my corsa of ebay M reg nothing fancy best thing it had was metalic paint no mot or tax on it but for the mot it needed a wheel bearing and a tyre thats all. But it is my project car so it didn\'t matter due to all new parts and so on and i got it for £160 but if you get a full mot on it you could get about £500 for it on ebay!!

Which insurance companies recognise a pass plus license? believe this is equivalent to 1 years no claims bonus?
