£500 voluntary excess?

That does help a bit. Set it to 0 and see what you get then.

system is offline now, excess doesn't really matter as I probably wouldn't bother claiming anything below about a grand anyway as it would screw future insurance up

I found out recently how much my old company paid for insurance for me....
Was a shockingly large number - higher than the worth of some of the cars I drove.

The question is when are you shopping the car in and getting something manly?

when I find something I want, nothing is catching my eye at the moment

having said that my brother has just bought a 650i and it's awesome so I can only imagine what a M6 must be like

Sounds like a fair price to me.
My insurance on my jeep only costs 179 quid a year & that is with All the mods claimed. It has a soft top so is easy to break in to, has No alarm & has all the mods which make it an attractive thieving item. If i hit anyone at 5mph i would kill them, if i hit a car at 25mph I'd probably write it off but my insurance is the cheapest it has ever been
I'm not moaning but wtf do they use to work it out ?
