Not being funny mate but you should of thought about your insurance before getting 9 points :huh:

Have you tried Sky or HIC, the forum sponsors?

perhaps ditch the GTI for a while and get a cheap diesel? for the price of the quotes you've had should be easy?

I use www.greenlightinsurance.co.uk I believe they are an insurance broker because my actual policy documents say Liverpool Victoria all over them. I'm 27 and I pay £450 a year with 7 years no claims, and I did have 3 points (long gone now but I had to declare them) I also had an accident in my old car about 3 years ago, not my fault and the cost was fully covered by the other party, but you still have to declare it. My insurance is fully comp, I have protected no claims and my mum is a named driver.  I have tried the confused.com and other comparison sights, and the cheapest I found was around £1200. Green Light has been the cheapest by a long way for the past 2 years, and I always shop around come renewal time. Last year the price went up by £3 or something, but they still came in at well under half the price of any other insurance company. Also when you ring them you get three options to choose from, then you are straight through to a real live person, not some computer asking you to press 7 if you have brown eyes, then press 3 if you like dogs.

Anyway I hope this helps.
