Cheap insurance

[BOGGLE]

when my insurance company wanted stupid money for my 1.8T i decided to shop around for a better quote.

I tried all the big firms on the net and then went through all the others in the back of magazines and yellow pages.
I called Greenlight who advertise in PVW and they gave me a quote of ?600 for my 99 1.8T.? That's having told them about the chip upgrade and bigger alloys.? Fully comp.? I'm 25 years old with three years NCD.?

I think that's a great deal and over ?100 cheaper than any of the others that i called (one wanted ?2000 )

Give them a try.

just to add to this conversation....

i'm 25 7yrs no claims, have standard 1998 1.8T, took a quote from sainsbury's bank ?498, is same company as first alternative and was the best quote i got. thinking of few mods this year, i.e suspension/wheels/exhaust....do all insurance companies add on about the same premiums for such mods or does it vary a lot?? friend of mine paid extra ?40 for after-market wheels.......i just don't want to get stung !!

all advice appreciated !!

  The best I have found is Adrian Flux... Amazing Quotes!!!

I am 25, 4 yrs no claims, drive a MK2 16v, have 3 speeding convictions and they quoted

?335 fully comp!!! 

If anyone knows cheaper I will be happy to hear it.

That's brilliant

When i called them they quoted me ?900 and i live in an area where there's no crime

I told them my car is parked in a private drive, that its in guildford and that is was a competitive situation... they then gave me that quote. 

It also has a ?200 excess... Thats all the details I gave. 

From my understanding the big difference is being

- 25
- a few years no claims

I dont know if being from this area mkaes a difference... I suppose they take it into account if the guy from Liverpool couldnt get a quote

I'm currently with Elephant for my standard Mk3 8v GTI, my premium is just over £450 fully comp with 4 years NCB, and NCB protection included (I quoted the car as not having an immobilizer, as I wasn't sure. The dealer I bought it from said it didn't have one, but Parkers Guide quotes all GTI's from '94 onwards as having one as standard . Can anyone shed any light on this?).

I thought that was quite good as most of the others I tried were quoting £600 or more, or wouldn't quote at all without an immobilizer fitted.

T1 VDUB I have to agree, being over 25 with a few years NCB can make a big difference

The only thing I will say as a minus to Elephant is, that to get the premium at the price quoted you have to pay it all in one lump sum otherwise they add about 20% to your premium for paying in installments.

Still, worth a try if you can pay it all in one go .
