Have you tried greenlight mate??? they are far the cheapest for alot of my mates! I went with them when I had my Leon Cupra R and I had at the time 9 points for speeding. Now that 3 have come off it went down slightly but when I moved to greenlight they only took 3 into account! beacause the other 3 was over a certain date/year

So for the T i'm paying £420 full comp with 3 yrs NCB and 3 points - and i'm 26

A lad at work was paying £300 for his insurance on a Fiat Punto, a car parked behind him went on fire and rolled into his car, the car that went on fire had no insurance so he had to pay £1000 to get his fixed. His insurance went up to £900 and he lost his no claims.
As already said try Greenlight if you havent already, my insurance is up in Sept and i just got quoted £430 which is £40 cheaper than anyone else and £200 cheaper than what im paying this year. There must be someone that will insure cheaper than that?

£225, lol.

How old... :wink:

36, but lots of caveats to that price. I've never claimed, though I do have three points, I pump the excess right up, it's in a locked garage in rural Somerset, and more importantly it's only insured for 6,000 miles a year which is more than enough. Used to be insured for social use only, but added commuting for the couple of times a year it's used, and it actually made no difference to the price.

I've been quoted £292 on similar terms for the upcoming Focus RS, which is nice!
