Default Returning to the fold?

I have been uming and arhing on purchasing another Impreza after owning two Volvo S60R's. They have been great to own expect when a trip to the dealer is needed.

I here that insurance companies have put up their prices by some 30% I read in the press, which has put me off.

I am young driver of 26 (27 Oct) and I have been driving for 8 clean years. I am insured through Gary with KM and I am currently paying if my memory serves me correct, £520 FC Protected. So before I contact Gary, what are my chances of getting an insurance quote on say something like a Ver6 STi Type R WRC (that I have seen) that won't break the bank - <£700??

Thank you

Darren

Well considering that's the kind of price I'd hope to pay on a classic WRX/STi at 27 later this month, 3 mon fault accidents, 3 points and 4 years NCB... think you shouldn't be paying much more than that kind of figure Darren.

Good to see you back, you can burn your Volvo encrusted slippers & pipe now dear boy
