Christ. I might have to ahev a look into footman james. That quotes bloody awesome! I'm paying a lil over a grand. The price of not owning a car for 3 driving years, and being 21, and male. Guh. My excess is £250, hald the price of the car. Whats the point in me having insurance, I wont do £250 worth of damage to a car! Bring on older age! :lol:

Ive spoken to FMJ a few times.
Twice they wouldnt quote me at all, and once they were highter than my standard insurance with Admiral.

Im only on 1yrs ncb though.

Adrian Flux - although they had a shakup last year, changed clients which means that not many of the original ones still exist. I only got £900 because they wanted to keep me as a customer. Try them but don't expect anything.

That's a damn good quote - do you have to garage it for that?
