Absolute joke at the mo mate, cheapest I could find on my GSi was £2250, yet my E30 325i was only £650, I ended up getting a trade policy for £1850 which insures all my cars and covers me to drive anything apart from bikes or quads.

Possibly because it's a car that is easy to steal. I spoke to an insurer a while ago and he said in the area there have been many no win no fee type claims in the area. Hence the higher than average quotes

Try Adrian Flux by phone, if they can't give you a good price he sometimes makes good suggestions CLICKY .

Fully comp was half the price of 3rd party for me (sounds back to front), I used moneysupermarket.com to search.
