It's older and you haven't owned it for as long, plus some insurers add more on if it sounds high risk. I paid less on an R reg than I was on an N reg even though the engines and security were identical.

Yeah it was on my dads, but none. He has two policies, one with my mum on for the Vectra, and started one with me on for my corsa when i got it. It was less that 600 too, was £45 a month.
