![Question](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Getting a little bored of the Boy racer Life with my Golf GTI, untill I'm settled in the new Job, I thought I'd get a Sport or 2.0GL.
Saw a nice clean 1.8gl, I reckon i can do with that for a few months... phoned up for a quote (Changing over from a Golf GTI).. Sorry Sir.. we can't insure you on a performance vehicle.. OK, I'm only 20.. but <B>Performance??</B> 110BHP of Pure Power. I made them double check and even checked the insurance group with them.
Anyway.. 2 days Later.. seen a Nice Black 94 2.0GL, nice price, phone up for a quote... Fine sir.. No change in premium either.. How the f**k do they decide that i can't be insured on a 1.8 because it's a performance vehicle.. then give me a quote on a 2.0 2 days later... Surely they must have some record of the quotes i got off them aswell??
Jokers - Glad I got that off my back..

This is probably of no interest to most of you, but it really wound me up!!

Sounds about right for the black art of insurance, particularly with young people. My policy would not allow me to change from a jap spec car to a uk car because they said rates had changed (since I took out the policy) as so apart from the car I was already driving I wouldn't be able to swap my car for any in group 16 or higher...
