I love you guys! *hugs*

Went and got quotes off all the companies you recommended online and none of em would insure me.

However followed your advice and phoned them, HIC have just got back to me:
6000 Miles a year, TPFT, with all my modifications declared, bumpers, spray job, alloys at 20 with 1 years no claims bonus on a 1.6(as listed on V5).

?620

I know as far as you lot are concerned it's expensive - but i paid ?800 last year as a first time driver TPFT on a 895cc Polo MK1!!!

:D Woo!

I Lurrrrvvvvvvvvvvvvvv you all :)

(My interior is going to have to wait though but atleast i get to keep the car :D)

you can insure the mk1 as a classic as well mate, have you tried that?

Limited mileage but you're at uni anyway so that shouldnt be a problem :mrgreen:

have you tried the usual suspects? HIC, Brentacre, Footman James etc?

FJ do modified cars - Mine is with them… I think your age is against you with them though.

FJ - I believe 25 is the minimum age for an ONLINE quote - if you phoned them up they'd probably quote you?

6000 miles is very limited though.. that's what, less than 3 months driving..  so you'd need four of those policies.. making it ?2400 ;)

Haha

Good work Procalx! :D

I'll second that - they are totally useless in my experience when you make a claim. Your milage may vary though…
