    something wrong with AXA, my Mom is paying ~500e on that powerful Honda Jazz I got her recently, she is well, old and never had a claim.

    Told her leave AXA but no point talking to her, wasting my time:p

    Its an utter joke. Last year i had my C200 insured for something like 700 fully comp. Same with the C220 CDI and even the 520i were all in or around the 700 mark.

    They class the 406 as a high performance vehicle. I never, ever heard such utter bollox. They clearly never drove a standard one!

    Looking at others don't think I'm doing that bad, that said a lot wouldn't even quote me last time due to age of car. One thing that strikes me is that there is no feckin consistency from reading this thread

    Not exactly the same but AIG did offer me cheaper, substantially better than FBD and were very negotiable on extra things since they were dropped/left from AA last year. AA added my wife to the policy and included full cover for her to drive any other vehicle for the same though.

    I do have four points for speeding which I haven't told them about yet. I'd say that would put up my premium... But I don't know if it would prevent them from paying out in the event of a crash. Worrisome.

    The price of insurance for 18-22 year olds has really dropped a lot since I was in that age gap which wasn't that long ago. The OP paid half of what I paid for a 1 litre corsa when I was his age. I think I was 22 before my insurance dropped below the 1k mark for a 1.4 corolla.
