Glad you are sorted - your own little piece of freedom. Insurance, get quotes for both. Years ago 3rd party used to be a lot cheaper, but now there are a lot less insurers offering 3rd party policies, so when the broker does the sweep, it will be over a much smaller number of offerings. For this reason, sometimes a fully comp policy can actually be cheaper than the 3rd party!! (Or only a little more). 3rd party cover being extended to any vehicle you drive that is not owned by you used to be standard on all comprehensive policies, it isn't anymore. Although it is usually on the policy, worth checking if it is something you want as in recent years, it is no longer always standard and a few have been caught out when they assumed they were covered and weren't. If you are a low mileage user, tell them - you can often get discount if you are only doing 5,000 or 7,500 miles a year. Also some give discount for physical theft deterants such as the disklock - again, worth asking - if they do, it can be worth buying (and using!) the lock just for the insurance reduction. I know you have said not worth a lot, but older cars are attractive to kids who just want to blast about in something as they are generally easier to get into and don't have fancy alarms fitted. Finally - be careful but enjoy!
