Prior to securing a deal on the 2006 Mk5 GTI we've just bought, I obviously avoided doing any insurance quotes.
We were just days away from the renewal of the policy of the 2002 BMW 530i sport it replaces so it made sense to just take a brand new policy out on the Golf and let the BMW's lapse.
So the inevitable day came when I had to bite hard and log into the comparison sites.
What a result!!! The Golf was cheaper than the BMW. Considerably!!! £230 with esure, fully comp with legal cover and protected no claims. The BM's renewal was just shy of £300.
I've not had such cheap insurance ever!
