    It has been discussed due to its sale, looks very nice, dont think the owner is a member here, but if the conversion was done by dreadnought, it is probably worth giving them a call as they will have seen a fair bit of the car!

    PS I want that one, but dont have the money

    Generally concensus is a bit overpriced, but if you can get em down to 12 I think that would be a good price...

    Didnt think charger would add that much to the insurance!

    Have you tried Peter Best or are you age restricted?!

    Peter Best quoted me a 30% increase in case of Nitrous. All depends on the under-writer.
    It's what made me decide against Nitrous...............

    You should be okay I would have thought and Peter Best know these cars and dont tend to load for mods like others would,

    Mine is insured for 480 with them including side skirts/exhaust/throttle body mods...

    Others wanted 500 with no mods...

    I was 49 when Peter Best insured mine on a classic car, 5000 miles per year with an agreed value of 10K for £300 and its Supercharged.
