   I am 19 years old with 0 no claims so a vts is a no go. Its completly standard at the moment. A mate of mine says that french engines only last about 80000k is this just a myth?

   LMBO! © sax-p! @ the 80k remark.
   
   Some of the guys on here have got well over 100k and there still going strong.
   
   
   The engine mods you put on will still affect your insurance, maybe not as much as a vts would though.
