From what i hear, Greenlight are awesome for insurance but personally I couldn't go with them as I don't have 2 years NCD yet as not been driving long enough! But I will try them again in the future.

I'm stuck with Elephant atm, purely because they're the cheapest I found for my Mk3 GTi 16v. But I would advise not going with them if you can help it! :)

Why? The reason I ask is that Admiral are the same company (as are Bell and a couple more), and they also for me are the cheapest quote for my cars (£485 for my 1.4 and £585 for my 1.9 - note that I haven't actually got insurance as all mine are sorned) so I had planned on going with them at some point (I'm still a learner but over 25 so I guess that *may* be cheap - certainly not found anywhere cheaper).

HIC are meant to be good, but they won't insure learners (not that this affects the original poster).

Chief :)

I pay £365 fall comp on my gti 8v.
thats with admiral. I'm 24, 4ync had licence from 17.

I payed £265 on my gti16v when I was 22, but because I moved 2 miles up the road it went up  :angry:

your area can have a huge effect on price.
