C20XE insurance quote.. opinions?

[auzzy-b]

Im currently paying roughly £500 for my 1.6 Gsi but since the insurance runs out in few days and the XE conversion has started i thought id better get some 2ltr quotes
the first and only so far is £1.290 with adrian flux
Iam 24 with 5 years ncb
quote package covers:-
wheels, suspension, exhaust , car with c20xe conversion, fully comp
£500 audio cover
and a £350 excess fee
i still have a couple of others to try but does this sound reasonable enough as im not familiar with this kind of insurance? opinions welcome:)

Thats a ridiculous price!!!
I pay less than £550 and i was only 22 when i started the policy!!!

Give Sky a ring

[auzzy-b]

lol to be honest i was hoping for something between £800-£1000.. I was paying a less than that for my astra vxr??lol

[Adam]

Try Sky mate if they will cover you.

As said, i was 22, 4years ncb, nova xe track car (cage/coilovers/buckets etc etc), and my policy cost around £550 for the year

Wow:eek: sounds promising! i'm still waiting for the call back from sky so we'll see..

Sky also covered my Mk4 Astra SRi for £400ish. And thats a grp11 car too.

[auzzy-b]

i certainly hope i can quoted something similar:d is the policy including alarm/immobiliser etc? and is it cheaper when an an extra driver is added?

28 years old with 1 YEARS NCB! are you something of a boy racer riggylol
ill give them a try too tah:thumb:

I assume you have a crappy postcode for that price... even £500 on the GSi is steep.

I'd expect to pay more ITRO £800, certainly under a grand. Its only 50bhp up on the GSi...

[dontliftdrift]

not the best price mate,i was 470 fully comp on a redtop at 23

no lol my ncb is on my daily haha ,

Sky won't quote as its OL postcode.

I pay £590 fully comp on my LET Nova with Flux, 28 with 7 years NCB so it does sound a bit steep.

HIC couldn't offer me a sensible quote at all.

Try Brentacre, I pay £400 fully comp on the Corsa XE with 4 years NCB.

[sulphur]

£400 for an XE corsa...yet only £190 more for an LET nova with how many more horses and worth how much more? lol

Insurance is fecking stupid..lol

[Lee H]

Corsa is used for commuting to work though and parked on a drive, Nova is garaged and not covered for driving to work.

[auzzy-b]

Well i have now heard from sky and like people have siad they say they cant insure modified cars only! around the OL region??
anyways i managed to reduce my original quote from flux to £1.012 by adding another experienced driver etc..
I still have a couple to hear from so fingers crossed ill come across a good/better deal:)

[rubachuk]

I'm in an OL postcode and I'm paying somewhere between £6-700 fully comp on a similar spec with HIC. (I'll check tonight)

Parked on drive, 5k miles, commuting, £2k agreed value, 30 years old, 1 year NCB

[Mazz]

I'm 28 and my XE cost me £360 FC with Sky with my full NCD mirrored. I phoned Sky first and when they gave me the price, i didn't even bother ringing anyone else!
