all this talk about insurance!

I work for a major financial co (who also do insurance!) and I have being checking quotes and with my current car (passat 1.6se) it will be £364 this year but on a 1.8turbo passat sport it will be £362 (b.t.w neither was with mod's as my work don't cover them!) Crazy!!!

where are the prices coming from?  :huh: :huh:

So a turbo is cheaper to insure, that is crazy.  :smiley:

Have you got long left on your policy, because it looks like insurance costs have rocketed the last few months, I paid £172 last year cheapest so far is £326 which seems a lot for a 35yr old full ncb and driving a simple car.
