iv had a wee look through the previous posts and thing this might sound rather cheeky compared to the prices some people pay

im 21 and have 3 years no claims, and was getting quotes for my xe. The best so far is £970 with 7k mileage. Is this good? i think it rather expensive, what do similar people pay?

also i got a quote from the RAC for £400 but im not sure if its legal. I filled out the online form and in the modified section ticked the non-standard engine, but never got asked for any details so it technically would be insured as a 1.2 with a non-standard engine, which is true, but just seems dodgie. What do you think? :confused:

I found them really good as the work on the BHP of the car and you get all the other mods for free :-) well non performance ones

The RAC one wont stand.

£970 seems very good.

I pay around £500 for mine. But i am 30 with a clean license and 4 years ncb. All mods declared, limited mileage and kept in a garage.

Was the £970 quote this too?? Might be why.

If not i would get a run down of the details just to be sure.

That's very good, I'm paying £1200 for my XE Nova, with all mods declared, and an SP30. I was 20 when I took out the policy.

Try HIC, when I was 22 on my XE, I was paying £380 fully comp with everything declared with trackday cover.

This is the first year I've decided not to bother insuring it and using it on the road, as there's too many idiots about. Going to trailer it to trackdays etc.

Also try Footman James, costs me £200 a year on an imported MX5 :d
Flip side, my tdi golf costs £580 FC with 4years protect NCB :(

Look for classic policies if you can get one at your age, as you wont need a NCB, you can then use this on your everyday car.

Footman James for me with an agreed price. They only wanted a few pics and description of the car. Agreed certificate was sorted within a week :d
