I thought it was quite good. Before I got my 8points I was paying £1100 so not bad. but yes i am quite sure my postcode is often targetted for vehicle theft. might try register it to my business address instead and see how it fairs. that place is a right dump and the last place anyone would go to nick a car :laugh:

hmm, london, 33 but then i add my wife, mum and dad to it which lowers the premium to 390 quid. 

funny thing is that a new mk6 is cheaper to insure than a 2nd hand mk5!

some insurers do this because they realize that if your able to buy a brand new hot hatch, your not going to be an absolute nut and drive like a nob (well most likely   :rolleyes: :laugh: the majority arent) therefore the premium is lower. However, any old guy can go and get a mk5 gti with 70k miles on the clock, and act like a boy racer as the car is much cheaper etc. therefore more expensive to insure!

Poor underwriting then. If I were them I'd extrapolate the claims experience from the mk5 and apply to the mk6.

However, don't get me wrong I ain't complaining!  Its all good logic that I can use to justify splashing out on a mk6!! :)

Thats really odd, I thought as far as the actual car was concerned it would be the insurance group that defined it not anything else.  I was led to believe that value didn't make any difference up to around 35k  :undecided:
