Hi, can anyone help me, im 17 and cannot afford to insure anything over 1600

tempted to buy a 1800 MK2 Astra ( IG 11 ) if i was to swap this engine with a 1400 ( IG 6 ) and change the log book would this be enough for the insurance company to insure me as a group 6??

has anybody else done this??

( using me dads account, until i make my own :) )

thanks

NO

Because the engine change means you have made a MOD to the car, resulting in your insurance being MORE!
