Its interesting how many of us had spitfires as first cars. Mine was a 10 year old 1972 MK4 CNX805J. Had so much fun with that car despite the rust. led me to a 1500 then a GT6.

My daughter has just inured a Ford KA 2004 that we found with just 12000 miles. It cost £1200 to insure without a black box.
I felt slightly concerned that a couple of infractions could lead to a cancelled policy. She now has a dashcam that alerts her to the speed limit and sounds an alarm if you go near the limit.
