With those mods, you'll have limited options - just try ND, Greenlight and AF for starters

Limited options, for sure. I seem to get less & less reasonable quotes every year. I'm with AF now, they have always been fairly decent quotes from them. ND, wouldn't insure me last year with those mods. However i'm a year older, a year wiser.(hopefully they'll see it that way) I'll have to make a start on the quotes over the weekend.

Remember insurance goes up every year (uninsured drivers, PI claims, more accidents as more traffic, no doubt higher taxes etc etc etc) so even if you benefit from more ncb or whatever, the price may not go down much

Yes, the risk on a 20vt turbo is very high compared to comparable (or even much more powerful) cars. For example, I could insure a £15k 350bhp SLK 32 for about the same as a £5k plus

About to re-insure my Coop LE - went onto comparethemarket.com to look. I'm 26 with 4 years NCB, car is either on the drive or at my girlfriend's residential parking. Quoted £650 or there abouts - I thought that was good.

Try Elephant or Bell Also read this http://www.fiatforum.com/insurance.html and call Chris Knott quoting the FF for price match and potentially 10% off

well i dont understand this. im with bell, and iv got 4 years no claims. but a couple of years ago i had a bump, knock for knock i thought, in a lane. had bout £400 worth damage to other car and i didnt claim for mine cos it wasnt worth it. how come iv still got 4 years no claims if the other driver claimed off me? i cant get other quotes because they ask me about claims and i dont know what to say to them. bell have this claim on file but say i get my 5th year in october. can somebody clear this up for me so i can get a better quote please?

You have 4 years no claims clearly because you didn't claim Elephant only ask for claims in the last 3 years, how long ago was it? The Admiral Group (incl Bell, Elephant) load for non fault claims for 3 years - their belief that statistically you are more likely to make a fault claim if you have a non-fault. If the other driver claimed off you, how was it knock for knock, rather than your fault? Normally the other companies have a list of types of claim - I think you would have to say fault, unless they have knock for knock

it was around may ish 2006. they have it on file but i dont know what type of claim. im paying around £950 for a 10 month policy,fully comp,on a driveway with alloys and exhaust. most quotes from other insurers have been stupid. i know my postcode isnt doing me any favours but im 30 now and been driving 10 years. just seems like im still paying too much even though bell are cheaper than all my other quotes.

Why not ask them - was Bell the company when you claimed?
Does sound like you are paying a lot, but maybe your postcode isn;t the best? Assume you have tried Greenlight / A Flux / Noel D?

I can recommend Adrian Flux. When I first bought the coop I was with Frizzel through the Union and they quoted £1100+ AF got it down to £550 so for some strange reason, I went with them. N.D. were only an extra £20 too, so worth phoning. AF even got Mrs MABR's quote down from £600 to £315 - result.
