Mines 2k lol
Graham Sykes offer club members a discount on insurance - if you join up for a tenner you could easily save more than that with the discount offered. Plus their prices are muchos cheapo anyway lol
£400 is cheap. I'd take that... Is less than i pay and i'm 32.

Elephant are good if the car isnt massively modified.
I always have to add 'Avoid Adrian Flucks' since they shafted me & I promised them I'd always slate them at any opportunity.

this is the reply I got off Chaucer

Ok the reason we are not offering a quote is because I can see the vehicle Vauxhall Nova has been modified. We do not accept any modifications on any car over 7 years old.
Ive had it before when they wont cover modded cars... Lots dont want too.
I always have to add 'Avoid Adrian Flucks' since they shafted me & I promised them I'd always slate them at any opportunity.
Sadly I had to go with them because they were the only one that would cover me with the roll cage

how bizzare is that, that a roll cage should be seen as a negative?
Well what is a rollcage design to do. Save you when you put it on the roof, when does it end up on the roof? Cause you're driving at higher speeds/more dangerously.
Big brakes can be the same... Why do you need them? To stop better, why do you need to stop better? Cause you'll be driving at a higher speed....
If you add safety equipment, your premium goes up because they think you want to fit it for a reason (that reason being, to drive harder). Take away all the safety kit and your premium goes up because the car isn't as safe. There's not really a win situation here lol

There is really, sell your car as I did and there's no need for insuring it lol

I started my current policy off with co op eco insurance who supposidly only insure eco friendly cars... Started policy on a mk5 fiesta zetec s 1.6 16v, sold that. Bought a saxo vtr, Then traded that for my nova. But my insurance premium dropped from £549 on the zetec s, to a shocking £325 for the year on my nova. That is classed as standard and no doubt if it got written off id just about get scrap money. However its since been taken off the road, ive insured my partners corsa C, And the novas having a C20ne fitted :) Will more than likely get raped when i start hunting for insurance on that haha
I just find it high as im an old fart lol
I'm 33 with 12 years ncb, clean lic. I pay £500+
im 47 lol
never paid so much for insurance before, my trade policy only used to be £600, only stopped that cause they stopped insuring modified and lhd cars
After 21, age means bugger all, it's all about the no claims bonus.

I dunno if Middlesea exist in the UK, but I'm paying ~240 sterling (for third party) in a 1.7L TD swapped Nova (literally the only insurance company that would insure me) and I'm 21.
try performance direct. they are pretty cheap
PD^ did me a fantastic quote, but couldn't give me the extras i needed. Sadly.
