I'm just waiting on my renewal from Kieth Micheals. I paid £575 last year.
I have a quote for £534 for next year, so if Moley can't beat or get close to that, i'll be taking it.

Compare The Meerkat/Go Compare etc. You might be surprised, i was.

Ive asked that question before but was told that it doesnt make a difference. Still suspicious though.

Don't know where they get these Prices from.

My mate bought a new Car the other month... 08 Reg Audi A4 2.0TDI SLine Worth £17,000

Same age as me, Little better post code but not great. Pay £540 a year. Gonna cost alot more to fix/replace that than my £5000 Scoob

Its something to do with Imprezas, boy racer, only buy them to drive very quickly image - probably. After this initial shock of the quote I started looking at alternative cars. Same as above but I looked at a Lexus IS220. Compared to my Scooby it has 15bhp more, more than double torque, newer, more expensive, prestigious etc... so how much more do you reckon it'd be?... that'll be £200 less please!

And mines a Sport for crying out loud.
