Default What to do?

I have had my sti 4 for nearly a year now. I'm 22 and have 3 years no claims. For my first year I paid £2400 for fully comp insurance. Got my renewal through today for £1900. Should I swallow the cost for another year ( I really do enjoy owning such a quick and capable car) or sell my beloved scoob and wait til i'm abit older.
Will the insurance continue to decrease at the same rate?
Any advice much appreciated.

Who are you insured with? Sometimes a new quote with the same company can be cheaper than a renewal quote, several people have found this with Tesco! Although at 22 you may not find this is the case but it's worth investigating. Have you phoned around other insurers as well? Exhaust a few more avenues before swallowing the cost for another year.

I've considered selling the scoob so that I can save up some money and buy a better one! There are some good threads in Other Marques about people going from a scoob to a TDi - I'm not suggesting you do this but it's interesting to see how people have found life after their scooby!

Just ring absolutely everywhere if you really want to keep it. There will be someone cheaper out there!
