I'm sure there was a thread on here somewhere with scans of a sales brochure. If not I'll post them back up.
Insurance wise I'm not sure what group but they aren't that bad to insure. I pay about £200 per year which is double my old beetle classic policy but less than on my 2004 Fiat Doblo (about group 6 I think).
