Renewal time 
I paid £189 last year for the MK2 Golf, £56 increase when I changed to the MK4 with 5 months left on the policy. Had a crash in between 
Renewal £520, haggled down to £447.
Think that sounds about right considering ive had a claim

Yes. Sounds pretty good - was the claim 'at fault'?

Yeah my fault, hit someone else both claimed costing a good few k's
I dunno, I guess im just used to it being super cheap, iirc I didnt pay anything like 450£ for my impreza when I had it, seems alot for a diesel golf

Ner mate, i find golfs tend to be expensive to insure for what they are!

Hmmm not getting any cheaper, had a couple around 380-420 but this doesnt include any mods (nowhere to declare them in the online quote) £450 includes protacted ncd & wheels/suspension, legal cover etc. Might just have to accept my days of 200 quid insurance is over

I thought a claim would boost it alot more seeing as you say it was a couple of K. I wish I was getting those quotes

In that case, it's very good.
Only a lucky few of us get cheaper quotes after having an accident
