Was just checking a quote for a 1.4. Quote came back 600 quid more than quotes I'd been getting the last few weeks with the same details. How the hell could the quotes shot up that much?

Where are you checking? If youre using online quoting systems then dont bother wasting your time; the same site once game me two quotes €200 apart for exactly the same details on consecutive days.

Ring the insurer/broker and talk to someone; this is only way to ensure that you get the best quote possible.

op normally the old quotes remain valid for a certain period of time, check if this is still the case! also try 123.ie

Sorry maybe I should have gave more info in the 1st post. 24, male, 2 years driving full no claims as named driver. Being shopping around for a car with a few months now. I've kept track of quotes from all insurance companies online whici varied for 850 to 1200 approx.
Like I said in the first post, went to get a quote for this Ford Focus 1.4 that I'm hoping to buy this weekend, and got this mad quote of 1400!! I know this law on gender balance is meant to be implemented soon but WTF!!
Fecking annoying as I've been saving like a mad yoke and now I have put more of my budget into insurance if it's what it seems!!! :mad:
