Golf GTD DSG insurance
Discussion
Leasing a new Golf which gets delivered on Monday. Last minute decision to go for the DSG instead after driving one and liking it - not the debate in this topic!
I've just gone to insure it and found the DSG is £540 compared to £410 for the manual. Has anyone else had this same issue?
i'm 33 with 9 years NCD, no points

Maybe there is just something strange with my combination of circumstances. I've been through the standard online comparison sites and rang a few companies direct.
I initially thought it was the quote age but even ringing through an insurer e.g. LV and asking them to just change the gearbox and re-run the quote has exactly the same effect. + 15-2
Last time, the call centre person put me on hold for about 10 minutes while checking with the "technical team" as she had never seen such a big increase....
Like I said, maybe I am unfotunate and someone down the road has written off a few DSGs recently! Good to hear nobody else has had the issue - gives me more leverage for negotiation so thanks for your feedback
And to the guy who said I was moaning over £130. To most people this is not an insignicifant amount of money. Lucky for you if it is.
