Good luck getting insured on a pocket rocket after getting banned. They are harsher on those than they are an MX-6. It's a funny world.

What did you do to get banned if you don't mind me asking? I'm a nosy whatsit.

98mph on a 60mph, looking at gettin something small non turbo as well, but will look into fittin a turbo engine in in the future

Parallex · 6-10-09, 6:33

How long did they ban you for for that?

Ben.

wasnt too bad was only 2months but with the insurance group of the mx6 and the fact i cant work as an IT Field Engineer at moment the costs are too high

My advice would be to get more MOT on it before it runs out.
I would also make some enquiries about the insurance, it may be worth storing it while your are off the road.

Your best bet is probably AutoTrader.
Good luck, it's a nice looking car
