I can imagine

The insurance for the T5 we had our eye on was twice what it cost! Over £2500

That's ridiculous. You -must- have been able to get it cheaper than that.

Even with all my modifications, age and location, mine only comes to 600 ish quid.

Yeah but... they live in Salford... Not exactly renowned as the favourite place for Motor Insurers to do business :o
The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair

To be fair, I probably could have done. We had our eye on two cars, the one we bought or the T5. They were both rather evenly matched mileage and condition wise but from what I could see the T5 had three issues:

1: it was black (I am sick of trying to keep dark cars clean and scratch free) with a very pale cream leather interior (no good with kids and dog)
2. it was automatic
3. it was in Bristol

The 2.4T was half the insurance of the T5, was local to us and not much slower. Oh and manual.

Don't let your age define you. It's a number, that's all.

Nasty D5 dieseasel with few twiddly bits from TWR, MTE, IPD and Eibach but 600 miles to a tank ain't to be sniffed at :-)
