Im all about being legal, so when it came to renew my policy this year im declaring everything, 18 1yrs ncb, they want £1500-2k off me, this means i would defo need another job because at that price i wouldnt even afford to get to college and back it would suck up all my savings, its pretty much the exact same amount of money i have spent on my car including buying it 
insurance is ridiculous, this is with adrian flux tpft btw, any one got any other advice on who to go to for insurance?

Stick with adrian.
When i bought my car (1.4 16V sport) i had a quote at £3000 (endsleigh) and 5 more insurance companys couldn't even quote AGAINST adrian flux quote of £1459 TPFT with legal cover and full breakdown cover.
Got 15" alloys, straight through S/S exhaust system (duplex), Lexus lights, single wiper conversion, Lowered 40mm and shock absorbers, Bodykit (at the time) and 1 or two more.
To be honest cause your 18 that's about right for a modded car, im 20 with no NCB and that's the price i got after two hours of phoning around every company in the covering hothatch scene, adrian flux is the best in my opinion............ In price! lol
But id say the only reason it maybe as high as it is is because of the change in your brake discs as their performance related.
It is hard insurance i know, ive taken on a second job for the last year and am currently 48hours in two jobs to flow things over, id be ok with only the 1 job but i wanna make sure i keep everyone happy including myself  
Nice car btw
