Hi All,
Really excited to say we're reliving my younger days and have just bought a fantastic Premier Edition, having previously owned a new EP3 back in 2004, as well as an FN2 more recently. Just wondered if people could advise...

1. Insurance - Which insurance company should I approach? My current insurer didn't want to speak to us anymore when I said I was getting a Type R :-o

2. Induction - From memory, I used to run a K&N 57i induction kit. Is this still a good one to go for? Where's best place to get one?

3. Tyres - I used to run 215/40R17 Toyo Proxes T1-R. I understand these tyres are discontinued. Are their new TR-1 tyres any good? What are the best tyres to go for as I don't like the tyres currently fitted.

4. Floor mats - The previous owner took out the floor mats. Where's best place to get some, and how much should I be paying for them?

Looking forward to being back in the fold and looking forward to your responses.

Long time ago I had and Ep3 for 220k kilometers in[…]
