    smaller engine the better, depends on your age, and ultimately your sex.

    The 106 is quite cheap to insure.

    Also depends on Cover of insurance
    i.e. Comprehensive/Third party/ Third Party+ Fire/Theft

    If Comprehensive or TPFT then the age of the car would matter (older cheaper) as it depends on the value of your car.

    Generally Diesel Cars fall in a group or two lower than their petrol cousins.
