Currently got a mk3 Polo GTI... Insured with direct line....


Toying with the idea of getting a Mk3 Ibiza Cupra 20VT... DirectLine wont quote me on their website....

Im 20, 1Yr NCB....A* area.... Anyone got any suggestions of insurance companies who dont want more than the car is worth? :D

green light ....greenlight....and greenlight...thats the only number you will need....(although i think you need to do it online & they phone you back)

-Phoned up when i was 22 with 1 years no claims for my 253bhp k03s cupra with all the trimmings : £980, EVERYWHERE else £2k +
-Phoned up for my 330bhp IHI VF34 powerhouse Cupra last September (24) with 2 years no claims: £789

Both cars have pages & pages of mods that I declared..

MAKE sure you mention you are an online clubmember on Seatcupra.net as they give a % discount

Tbh though it wont be easy to get a really cheap quote at your age with only 1 years ncb, let me know if you get any better quotes so I can ring them up..but personally if greenlight dont give you a good quote i'd just give up!lol

and good choice btw, absolutely love the mk3 cupra, its a great car with an even greater engine :)

I swapped my mk5 polo 1.4 8v for a mk3 cupra when i was 19 and never looked back im also 20 now with 0 ncb and i have been quoted 1.5k jus using confused.com etc, you years ncb should help you but i cant see it being a huge step up from what your paying on the gti for so much more car!

best decision i ever made, mines revo'd to roughly 200bhp and it still destroys alot of cars out there, one being the civic type r :D

look to get one thats already got a remap on it as you will be wanting it!

Id do as james says and get on to greenlight
