Who do you insure your car with?

[ahagerty]

I hope to buy a Mark 2 early Spring and was checking out some insurance quotes.

Back in September Direct Line quoted me £920 and now when I check the price online it has jumped up to £1300! some have been as high as £1700!

I am 28, 4 years no claims, no convictions etc...

Any idea why the prices seem to be rocketing? Sept 11th events perhaps filtering through to the car insurance market?

I tried Tescos as advised in another posting but they wouldn't give me an online quote so will have to call.

Cheers

Re: Where do you 2 guys live? Kabul?

I live in Glasgow - G41 - a decent enough area ( honest! :-)

If the insurance is gonna be over 1K I may have to postpone my Mk2 Purchase :-(

Thanks for your advice. Will keep looking.
