Insurance question - please look :)
« on: 20 March 2011, 21:54 »
im 19 and i drive a 1.6 mk3.

Do you think i would be able to get inusured on something bigger? a 1.8 etc?

Ive looked on the comparison websites and there just quoting stupidly high prices, however they did this when i got insured on my 1.6 but i found a cheap deal elsewhere.

I will ring up tomorrow and find out if my insurer will give me a quote or not but i was just wondering if anybody on here could give me there advice, or if anybody else was in a similar boat to me  :smiley:

Ramble over, thanks for taking the time to read  :smiley:

You can get insured on anything you want. Of course, the more powerful and expensive the more costly it'll be.

NCB, where you live, where you park, annual mileage, modifications, security all play a part in it as well as any named drivers.

Try Brentacre though, when I was 19 I paid £1300 on my 8v gti.
