Tesco came up trumps for me too. I seriously don't know how some of you guys get these quotes, they all seem cheap to me with you being young and having little or no NCB!

Im 21, got 4 years NCB and 6 points, to insure the S3 with Tesco it was £1800 which I was quite happy with, the next best quote was £6500!! Audi insurance quoted me £21,000, yes £21,000 for 12 months insurance  :angry015:

Stage 2 GTI, exhaust, wheels, suspension etc all declared with me and Mrs as named drivers, 6yr NCB, 2x SP30's and a non-fault accident £472 with Greenlight.

Talking of insurance if you ever cancel mid-way through a policy you may as well pull ya pants down  :sad:

Jesus, how do some of you afford these cars so young. Take it you live at home still!!!!

Mk5 GTI for myself (oldun) 28 with 5+ years NCB and my fiancee covered as a named driver who is 21, £880 through Brentacre. It was cheaper with Churchill at around £640, but we would have lost more money transferring out of our existing policy, so its as cheap to stick with Brentacre and pay the increase.

Brentacre have unlimited mods policy with no mid term adjustment costs though. So its worth sticking with them for that. Well, unlimited mods for anything that doesnt boost performance.

Worth noting, that on my own policy the cost was around £400.

Haha, yep, still live at home - £150 rent a month is quite enough on top of the £400 a month I pay for my car!  :sad1: Oh well, it's worth having no money left when I have such a lovely car!  :happy2:

Saying about declaring mods and stuff though, are you supposed to declare if the car came standard with things like sat nav, xenons, 18" Monzas etc etc? As I know they always say something like 'any modifications' but actually my car hasn't been modified, it came fully loaded...??  :confused:

28 years old.
No mods etc.
3 years no claims (1 claim declared)
Clean license (finally!!)
Parked in garage overnight, outer London.
Admiral - just over £800  :sick:

Would never pay over £1k for insurance on any car!
Hoping it will drop to the £600 next year.....

You should ideally, as standard spec GTI didnt come with all that, so in theory although they are manufacture fit options, its not standard. I declared mine just to be sure.

Adrian Flux quoted me around £450 for the year on a GTi and Esure were similar. I'm 31 with full claims and no con's. Currently with Admiral (till next month) and thats about £540, protected with the wife and business cover too. I've also heard that some of the companies that are allegedly just for women will actually cover anyone and that they are pretty cheap. I've yet to ring though.

Well I'm outraged!

After viewing Cossy's rather well priced insurance from Morethan I thought I'd give them a try as mines due soon. Taking into account I have a civilian and non-civilian advanced driving certificate and live in a low crime area with full protected no claims and no mod's they still won't let me join their club! How rude! :surprised:
