still other places want anything from 2800 - 3200 i live in a nice place in torquay not rough at all and the post code chart thing that insurance companys go by or what ever says that i am in a B aera i think i just dont get it to be honest.. 2800 is better than quinn but still it is appauling !!! my car is worth like 800 quid if that!!! grrrr this really irritates me !!!

im in my second year with quinn i got in there when they were giving out nice low premiums lol im only paying £600 on my vtr that is tpft mind, they were much cheaper than everyone else and they knocked my premium down £300 from £900 when i got my second ncb, no complaints from me, but i will be swapping companies when it comes up for renewal though i am starting to get worried by them

Quinn deffo seem to have gone super shit since going into administration.....I've been with them 4 years now n not had a problem.

Had my first car a month (to the date) and some drunk smashed into the side of it, took his insurance company 6 months to admit liability, but Quinn provided me with courtesy car cover for that length of time for free :D and when I did get paid out I got more than what I told them the car was worth, and they let me keep the car (was a write off)

Got it quite cheap now but cant see em lasting much longer

Are you sure? When I was getting my first insurance on my Saxo, Tesco would only do phone quotes for me, not on the internet, but they were okay quotes! And if you have a club card too, also you can use your vouchers on them.

Have you given Bell a ring? Might be worth a shot! I got a quote for £24,000 on a VTR and £20,000 on a Furio then I rang Bell up and got my 106 GTi insured much cheaper.

I got my quote from a company in the booklet I got when I passed.

Should have been £3,200 but got it for £2,500 (still steep I know)

I was 17 (now 18) on a standard VTR Mk1 - Own policy, fully comp, breakdown cover, key cover, up to £5,000 cover of stuff inside the car too :y:

Other companies such as Admiral, Quinn, Bell, etc were quoting me just shy of 4k!

yeah same here. i took my policy out as a provisonal holder when they were only taking on people with provisonal licenses, not full. when i got my full license it went up but not that much.

im going to pay around 2000 for the year :y: 17 years old VTR :y:
