good look han

the only other thing you could do is get secondary insurance ie keep the insurance on the driver and get the insurance for the cab off someone else the only thing is paying two lots of insurance it is possible though
worth a try  :smiley:

You could always keep your original policy till Dec to make sure you don't lose out on that, but buy yourself a Cab and then insure it as a classic with restricted low annual mileage which should cost less.

Have you looked at getting a lower powered non-GTI cab ?
They did make them with 1.4/1.5/1.6 and 1.8 carb engines. That way you could buy one with less power, but cheaper to insure, then you could either work on the performance later when insurance is cheaper or change to a GTI Cab later.
