Dunno ... I'm in Dalgety Bay in Fife. Car is on driveway and have a Tracker, 12K max per year.

Being 30 made a bit of difference, putting the wife on (31 Full NCB) made it come down slightly as well. I have Full NCB as well and no points.

Do Tesco have MY01 (bugeye) a higher group then MY00 (classic)?
I phoned around at renewal time and I could get a fair few quotes around 600 odd

Not sure if this helps though.

Not sure about the difference in model. Adding my parter (32) increased it by £30 and she's claim free...... I've got full NCB too, 8 yrs. Nae luck. Have to do a good bit of phoning around when I renew in January. SOme good contacts on this BB which should help.

Insurance for MY99 turbo DOWN from 1200 Euros to 400 Euros (that's 250 quid a year to you sir). Insurer allows wife's 75% no-claims on both our cars as we moved *all* our private policies to them. Car still in my name - no funny business necessary.

ECUTEK3 and downpipe modifications allowed at no extra cost!!

What nice cloggies!
