Just wondering how much people who've swapped a 1.4 into a 2002 1.0 are paying? Comparison website tells me they value the car at £395 and then say they want £1382 for insurance!
Cheers. The comparison site was just for an initial Impression, I’ve made a list of brokers I’m going to call next week when I’m off.May I suggest that you do your own research in your own interest & spend time due diligence reading through & then implementing Martin Lewis advice on how to save money & minimise motor insurance costs? Use at least the four named comparison screensaver web sites plus specialist insurance brokers who deal with highly modified & therefore dificult to evaluate quantify non oem vehicles.

PS; I pay £125 per year fully comprehensive for my 1300cc K11, thanks to following Martin Lewis suggestions & carrying them out diligently. The savings are well worth a little effort & time spent on my part.
Good luck.
Make sure you've got some specialist insurers on that list. An average insurance company will shaft you for it.Cheers. The comparison site was just for an initial Impression, I’ve made a list of brokers I’m going to call next week when I’m off.
Will definitely check out that link when I get home.
Had to phone mine to even get the option. Definitely won't be re-insuring till I'm next in the UK as it was ridiculous. Picking up the engine on Tuesday so going to mount it for overhaul, check it runs, paint it and then wrap it for storage. I'll then contact whichever broker works out best when I'm back in December & my current insurance has finished.Make sure you've got some specialist insurers on that list.

I had to explain to my last insurance company what a remap was After 25 minutes the guy on the phone told me he wouldn't cover me if my car was mapped.
