Right, a while ago i was asked to see if i could come up with i list of the insurance groups for all the different models of golf gti (
http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=51190.0) as it may be usefull to prospective buyers etc!
Now this list is based on the groupings of one of our major underwriters at HIC and is by no means the same across the whole insurance market. It could also be subject to change. It is also worth pointing out that at HIC we rate vehicles from grp 1-50 rather than 1-20 but it should still give you an idea (eg HIC grp 25 about the same as grp 10 on the normal scale).
People should bare in mind there are many other factors to account for eg age of vehicle, value etc and we even give target vehicle discounts for certain models so dont assume if its a lower group then it will be cheaper all of the time!
Anyway here goes:
tpft comp
mk1 Gti 1600cc 26 30
mk1 Gti 1800cc 36 36
mk1 Gti Cabr 38 42
mk1 Gti black Cabr 35 39
mk1 Gti white Cabr 35 39
mk1 Gti CC Cabr 35 39
mk1 Gti Sportline Cabr 35 39
mk1 Gti Rivage Cabr 38 42
mk2 Gti 8v 32 36
mk2 Gti 16v 35 39
mk2 Gti G60 40 44 (+25% left hand drive)
mk2 Rallye LHD 4wd 40 44 (+25% LHD)
mk2 Rallye G60 SE 40 44 (+25% LHD)
mk3 Gti 8v 32 36
mk3 Gti 8v colour concept 32 36
mk3 Gti 8v Anniversary 35 39
mk3 Gti 16v Anniversary 40 44
mk3 Gti 16v 38 42
mk3 VR6 38 42
mk3 VR6 Highline 40 44
mk4 Gti 1.8 20v (125bhp) 26 30
mk4 Gti 2.0 (115bhp) 35 39
mk4 Gti T (150bhp) 32 36
mk4 Gti T (180bhp) 42 42
mk4 Gti Anniversary (petrol) 38 42
mk4 Gti Anniversary (diesel) 35 39
mk4 R32 42 46
mk 5 Gti T (200) 50 50 (17)
mk5 Gti T Edition30 (230) 50 50
mk5 R32 50 50
(not sure whether those for the mk5 where correct or whether that particular underwriter just didnt want to cover them - the mk5 gti t 200 came up as a 17 with one of our others who use grps 1-20)
thats all i could remember, let me know if i have missed any, hope its helpfull!
