This is a complete joke. I can get insured on an MR2 turbo for less then a grand, but can't get insured on a 1.8t
with my current insurer, looks like i'm gonna have to go with the MR2. Which isn't a bad thing but i was looking
forward to another Golf.
I could change insurers but i'd lose some of my deposit, plus admin charges plus the only other insurer i was getting decent quotes with
was Bell & that was at £110 a month, i'm currently paying £65 a month.
You should expect to get a turbo car at your age with low insurance. It just doesnt happen. Reason - young people crash more and are more wreckless.
And VWs are more expensive to insure probably because the parts are stupidly expensive. It's not a sensible choice for a young driver.
I can quite happily get insured with other insurers on a turbo but it's just this one bloody insurer who i'm with now.
Even changed my DOB to 1980 & they still wouldn't quote me. The Cheek of it!
A Badge snob.
I'm not, i just really loved my 8v that i want another Mk4. Love the interior too.
