It would appear that a higher compulsory excess is the industry norm with a GTI etc. I just wanted to check what everyone was paying, since it seemed a little steep for a 45 yr 'clean' lady with 10 years claim free and full NCD – but I don’t think we can complain looking at some of the numbers!!!
Renewal premium is at £430 and I’ve had an alternative quote (via highway) at 10% less
