If he had a years no claims and no points I don't think it sounds too unreasonable.....  Plus he might live in the middle of the forest of dean (no crime), keep it in a garage with floodlights/guard towers/guard dogs/etc, have added his dad as a named driver, never drives it to work, and has a policy limited to 27 miles a year.  Or if the car was old enough he might have got a classic car policy or something.

So many factors affect your insurance quotes...  "18 years old" and "golf gti" don't mean much at all really by themselves....
