i bought mine at 25 but thats when insurance drops a lot. try greenlight first not sure if they will be the best for under 25yr olds but modded GTIs fo sho.  :happy2:

its a good idea to get insurance quotes before buying a car or even modding it as you could be stuck with something you cant insure especially if you were gonna go mad and put a fiberglass body kit on it!  :laugh:
