it depends wot car its on but basically when
the turbo kicks in u get a shot of power and
ups ur bhp to cost more money though as u
will put more diesl in it turbo normally
kicks in at around 50 or 60 mph so keep it
under that ull be fine

no you wouldnt have trouble insuring it but
the prices would be crazy prices over a grand
i should think a R reg not bad it would be
fast i should fink for a first car go from a
1.0 to a 1.4 cheap insurance and tax

tinzel, ring round for a few quotes before
you decide.

You are over 25 and female so it might not be
as bad as you think.

its just a flat diesel with a turbo, the
turbo is just a fan attached to the exhaust
that speeds things up a bit and whistles a
tune as it does...

generally it should make little difference to
the insurance costs if you're over 25 and
been driving for more than 1 year, it isn't
fast because of the turbo, its faster than a
flat diesel (a diesel without a turbo)..

for example a 1.8 mondeo turbo diesel is
probably about the same cost as it is to
insure a mondeo 1.8 petrol..

if you're buying a dagger dagger make sure
you have someone check for excessive turbo
smoke...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!


just re-read....

forget insurance, a 97 jeep cherokee....

it'll have worn bushes on the steering, the
head will be leaking at the back and the
electrics will have alzheimer's...

pop the bonnet and look where the head meets
the block on the exhaust side...

then run away...

in my old astra till i decided what i wanted
n bought the wee holden n will get rid of
when the warranty runs out

inertia switch.....


this is a little device that cuts the fuel to
the engine in the event of a crash..

all you need do is find it, then wait til'
you're in the desired location and kick it...
car stops.. bingo...



hey suze..
