Stick with ST or Go GT?, Problem is im only 21 in uk the insurence will take my pants down Options

Hey guys got a bit of a tough choice to make soon,

Well about me,

Im 21 & currently hold a full Uk licene with 0 years no claims,

I managed to get insured on a 1.8 st for £1800 (altho i upgraded from a saxo 1.4 so diddnt pay the full £1800 in one go, but thats another storey)

Well soon its coming up to my 1 years no claims so i could just about to get a GT,
Renewal for a 1.8 st = £1200
Upgrade insurence to GT = £1400

My whole aim on this is to get a car worth doing up, full body kit etc, I cant do much on the engine as this will boost insurence thru the roof!

What would you guys do in my position? Hope this makes sence

Cheers

not many differences between the 7a n 5s. however, im thinking you aren't worrying too much about the engine thats sittin inside 'er, so light mods (performance drop in air filter or cold air intake, custom exhaust piping/muffler, headers, timing advance, spark plugs) would do well for you and won't notice too much of a difference.

i'd go for cheaper..so you can save money for more parts and modifications
