I'd have thought at 28 you would be able to spell properly.

Is it because they would have to repair the garage if it was stolen out of it ?

they said it was because the thief had more 'undisturbed' time to get the car started

when i kicked up a fuss about my tracker they put me on hold and then after 6-7 mins the phone went dead

Post code seems to have a huge influence, I'm 28 with an '03 WRX and paying just under £280 a year for mine. 11yrs protected NCB, 15kpa, parked on the street. Can't complain at that really but then with few exceptions Scotland does seem pretty cheap and low risk as far as insurers are concerned, it's not Smethwick or anywhere like that!

The postcode makes a big difference but what I don't understand is if I have been driving for 30 years in same postal area then I surely must be a low risk but still get loaded because of someone else, the driver now is a small part of the premium which there is nothing we can do other than move house or put up with it.

Punctuation shouldn't begin with a capital if it's there in the sentence.

Your annual milage makes a difference as well. I'm only paying £380 fully comp with the missus as a named driver, A Plan is the best IMO.
