HIC is Herts Insurance Company, but they dont have a web site. They quoted me ?440 for Fully comp with 4yrs NCB, 1 non-fault claim and track day cover (25 yr old). In the end though I went with Barry Grainger Ins broker (www.barrygrainger.force9.co.uk) and got fully comp for ?410. By the way thats on  a mk3 8v GTI

I think elephant and budget are worth a try.

Check exactly what your getting regards hire cars and excess etc. Sometimes the cheapest isnt always the best. After a bad experience with a broker I know use directline.

Tried Budget and Elephant but both came back with high premiums, which I wasn't overerly impressed with especially as I already have a policy with elephant...
Went with HIC (cheers!) found them quick and helpful and staffed by like minded people, track day cover is included and came out at ?340 for a 150bhp MK2 GTI.

Which was nice.

Sod the Norwich Union, HIC quoted me happy!

I'm paying ?1014 fully comp for my '87 8v Gti.
I'm 21 with 0 NCB, sp30 and 1 claim in the last 3 years.
That's with AXA

I called them up today to tell them I had an alarm on there and mentioned wheels and mods. She added my 15's to the policy for no extra :D

I then asked about putting the later doors on (wing mirrors at the front instead of halfway down the door) and she said that was fine. As long as they're a direct replacement that's fine. I said it was hard getting parts so that was all I could get and she was ok with it :D Bargin. That covers my big bumpers, leccy recaro's, crystal lights, 4 bar single light grill too :D

Excellent.
