6Yrs NCB
Tesco Motor insurance
UK 97 Turbo 2000 Impreza
£699 Fully Comp. protected NCB.
The guy even turned around to me and said i can get insured on a Evo 8 FQ340-400 for £1200 fully comp!!!
you have to be atleast 23 with 2 yrs NCB to get insurance on a scooby/evo according to the guy, as i tried adding my GF onto my policy but she has to be 23. shes 22 until June

Before I got my Type-R I contemplated an Evo 8 MR FQ330 and found out that it was nearly £100 cheaper to insure than my Scooby!!!!!!
And the Evo was only £13000 Tax Free to buy!!!!!!!

The very very breif version of events....took them over 2 years to process a claim for me and in the end the solicitors told me to give up and accept the loss, I took the third party to court on my own and got my no-claims back.
Bear in mind that this was 2 years with a fault claim on my license because they could not clear it for me.
Every step of the way they were useless, the service was laughable at best.
Would never ever use them again.

Yesterday my dad called up Adrian Flux, and was told that me as a named driver would have to be 25! (I'm 24 with a v6 firebird insured through them!!)
Also he was told that the 2.0 GL AWD automatic he was trying to insure was a hatch - "no it is a 4 door saloon not a wagon" oh and that we must be mistaken about AWD, they don't know what awd is.... However if we meant 4x4 then well, that was on their system...
I hate insurers...

I'm 24 (female tho) and mine is an 02 WRX. I'm not sure on the exact price as I just swapped the insurance over from my 2.2 Vectra SRI and it cost me an extra £450.
I think when I was looking to check I could insure it Tesco was the cheapest and it was coming up at about a grand, which I thought was quite cheap as it included my hubby having 3 points for speeding.
We are currently with Admiral but they don't know about the mods which I am going to have to declare at renewal time!
The only thing about them is that they don't give discounts for having a Tracker fitted.

Even a 14 year old 1.8Gti 8v Golf worth £1800 is costing me £700 to insure fully comp through Admiral who were the cheapest
but get this they only want an extra £148 to upgrade to a Clio 172 Cup worth £9k with 9 months of policy left

I've had an Impreza turbo since I was 22 with 3 years NCB. I started off with Barclaycard insurance for £1000 (no tracker or extra security req'd)
Each year it's come down in price - now I'm 25 I'm paying £700(ish) including a decent amount of mods with Bell Direct. Interestingly, the TVR Griffith 500 is at least £50 cheaper to insure from the same company.
