Sounds like a good plan. Dunno what insurance would be like though.

You might be surprised on the insurance. Can only get quotes and see what they say.

Yeah im thinking it will be about 1k i reckon however it will only be insured for personal use so that might put the price down abit as i wont be using it all the time.

£1k wouldn't be a bad price. Not something i've ever tried to insure so i have no idea what it could be.

Sooner you get something sorted you can get to some of the meets.
