i have to say - what are you expecting?

you cant double the power output of the vehicle and expect the insurance company to bend over.

put up buddy. life is tough. if 1.5k is bad, consider that the lowest quote i could get tpf&t for my 16v 10 years ago was 4.5k. And that with 3 or 4 years ncb.

you gotta shop around
i bought a vr6 in 1996 had 3 yrs ncd 26 years old and loads of companies wouldn't insure me, most were ?1200 + then a mate recommended prospero direct, now axa i think and i got fully comp for ?400

its a pain in the ass phoning round but can be worth it

Remember winter is the time when insurance rises because it is accident prone and companies make alot of money from this.

Insurance is like bog roll, not very interesting but everyone needs it.
