For context I'm 36, have about 14years NCB, an SP30 to declare, but live in a BD (bradford) postcode, albiet in a nice area the BD prefix puts the price up. Greenlight wouldn't even quote me.

Well I insured through flux to keep it all above board. The cheap quote on compare was through ageas... Incidentally they're the same people who underwrite my flux policy.

Thanks, will bear them in mind.
Esure have emailed saying there was an error in the renewal and will send out a new one....see what they come up with now lol.
I still think it's a 'kin racket.

Age didn't appear to be a factor in my case as I'm 51 with a clean license (god knows how) and live in a low crime area.
Adding my missus brought it down though, not that she ever drives my cars :grin:
Annoying as my ED30 was always around £350, so it must just be a BMW tax or something! Too many road captains crashing their remapped M140is maybe.
In the end the cheapest cover was BMWs own insurance bizarrely enough. LV= who I was with last year refused to quote :grin:
