thats the v6 i like ?

what insurance group is the 2.8t as i can obly find the inc group for the vxr?


cheers mate

[Big Sig]

If you open the links I put up and look in the sunnary tab it states they are a group 15.

Its basically the same engine as the VXR but detuned to 250bhp from 280. Nothing a remap won't take to 300

All the V6's are very good

chees for that mate will get a few quotes just i know direct line "who im insured with at min will only insure me on anything up to a 14 and some cars they do quote on on 15 depending on the car?


with out sounding silly why is every one against tuning the v6 diesel?

[Big Sig]

because the fuel pump is £3k and they tend to go pop when remapped.

[kirky2k4]

good enough reason ... direct line wont touch me on the 2.8 elite


whats the 0-60 and top speed on the v6 diesel... i can get a decent quote else where on the 2.8 but pref stay wi direct line

[Big Sig]

0-60 i think is about 9 seconds and top end about 140mph but they tend to run out of puff at 130mph as its too high in the rev range for a diesel, although I think they are quicker then 9 seconds but they require 2 gear changes, as 60mph is 3rd gear.

Hvae you had quote from chris knott? he provides good cost insurance and is an approved trader on the site
