1.8t insurance
I know most of you might think im mad insuring it properly but if your in a bad accident ( hopefully not ) your insurance would be void
Ive spoken to a few mk1 20vt owners and none have them have declared it….
If you get a tug by the old bill how do you convince them that the turbo/intercooler/dump valve ect were standard on all mk1 golfs and dont actually work they are just for show…… it aint going to happen
Anyway if you know any info on this please let me know …………… cheers

Best thing to do is ring specialist insurers and see if you can get quotes for 'when' the work is done.

It went up this year by 60 notes, I rang round Bentacre, Footman James and a couple of others and they could not beat it. Said something about having to pay for uninsured drivers, how ironic to this thread is that !!

Thats a big difference to the £8853 compare the market gave me
Attention…
Just a note to anyone thinking of going 1.8t, Footman James said they can only insure upto 100 bhp more than the cars original power so it would pay to convert a 1.8gti rather than a small block engine………..
