Depends how you look at it. My 1.0 Micra is a group 3 and probably quicker, Standard 1.6 si is a group 8, so a group 5\6 will be about right.

insurance groups mean shit to me. some grp20 cars are cheaper for me to insure than grp13 or grp 16 cars.

my grp15 car is 1/3rd the price to insure, compared to a fiesta ST for example which is group 12 or 13.

again, all true. My Leon diesel is a group 13, and was about the same price to insure as a group 8 Fes Si.

The groups do mean something but insurance also considers value of car and price of parts, eg, my insurance is more or less the same from the Saxo (14) to the C2 (8), but the C2 is worth a lot more.

Aren't the new groups in now?

Yes, dont read too much into insurance groupings, they are only there as a guide and vary from company to company.

Concern yourself more with claim free driving!

Here's a question then! Is there much difference in your experience Oli, for someone who's driven/had a licence 7 years claim free with with 4NCB

Compared to say 7 years claim free with say, 7NCB?

Sometimes I stick with a company so I don't lose my NCB, but does it really matter that much? I'm currently on 24 years old, 4 and a half years driving, 4 years ncb.
