Try going through Flux, see if they can help.
Your only need to drop Dan a pm with your phone number and best time to phone you and he will sort the rest out for you.

Its because its a legal requirement, theyve got us all over a barrel.

If its a legal requirement it should be issued by the goverment, and set fees for certain details(diving experience (not age), car value, etc)

Just renewed mine with hastings direct for £330 fully comp and protected no claims was pleased .
But did old style by ringing around playing one against the other i know it takes time but near the end of the month they try to hit there targets so some of them will reduce cost ,
But did hear that premiums have gone up because 30%of cars on the road are not insured

yeah £400 hike though is a bit excessive,

i can insure a 2.0tdi 170 sport passat for £575 fully comp, get 10mpg better and pay £40 a month less on finance

so i think thats a goer

im only 22 and im starting to realise i may aswell wait until im 25, have a cheapo oil burner for work and buy a petrol sporty car for weekends,

seems to be the only way due to insurance Sad

Can't blame insurance completely - saw a crash this morning, car pulled out of a side street straight into the path of a van. No one was speeding, yet it happened.

Add c**p drivers, uninsured drivers, cars with serious defects like poor tyres/brakes or other mechanical issues and you get an idea of how many crashes occur that shouldn't happen. These all cost the insurance co.s money, and they take it out of us.

It's the whole system that needs reform, not just insurance - if they could make the same profit without it costing them as much, they would charge us less.

Ok that's a bit ridiculous, but I'm guessing if you compare the percentage of CTRs that get wrapped around trees to the number of IS200s, it might make a little sense Smile
