Sorry to wind you up, BUT as I am an old git (36) I pay £407 fully comp on any car. The only car I cant drive on my policy is a cosworth. Just think i can drive a porche or a top end merc but I cant drive a car they dont even make anymore!!! how stupid is that

Yeah I emailed them not long ago about mods, they said aslong as my car passes MOT's with the current mods, they will cover them.

I currently pay 1100 tpf&t for a furio (when I was 19). Next year when I have 1 year no claims, and wait a month and a half after my policey runs out (I will be 21) and my insurance will be something like 450£ tpf&t or alternatively 700£ fully comp. :A:

just been on the fone to my insurance company i pay 1000 pound a year so if i wanted to cancel it it works on this scale

one mouth = 30%
two mouths = 40%
three mouths = 50%
four mouths = 60%
five mouths = 70%
six mouths = 80%
seven mouths = 90%
eight mouths = 100 %
i have been with them for five mouths so if i want to cancel my contract i will have to pay them around 400 pounds

why dont you just hang on till end of your policy

save up some cash to buy the top mods you want

do your homework on insurance companys (as most say quinn only charge extra for engine mods)

then you have what you want on your car, for a good price plus a extra year on the ncb
