Direct line, less than £300 but I am 35 with full NCB. Not sure if I would recommend as never had to use them, but as far as price and the supposed cover, they are good. 184 FR, 63 FYI

I`ve been with Direct Line for 11 years. My Cupra private lease built last week (9 weeks early) collecting January, made an enquiry and was provisionally cheaper than my 2012 Octavia vrs cr hatch. I`m an old git though!

The saga quote was from compare the market.com. On the off-chance before taking it up I rang Chris Knott who after speaking to Cathy agreed to match the saga quote (275.00). I thought this might be a good idea if i decide to modify in the future. I would suggest you try getting a quote off a search company and then see if you can get them to match, if they see an increase in sales they may be keener to catch our business!

Exactly what I did, both Chris Knott and Adrian Flux. In fact they asked two questions within the first few sentences after the 'hello, how can I help,' what was my cheapest quote found online, and after mentioned it was a Seat first question 'is it a Cupra'. :confused:

Maybe I need to mention that C word in order to get the fantastic good price, I mentioned I had a 1.0 TSI, all went to pot :cry: Anyhoo...they mentioned they couldn't get anywhere close matching, was 2.5x more expensive.

They always seem to struggle on the more 'normal'cars

Was paying them ~800 quid to insure my old car, and with the Seat they wanted more than double that...my old car being a Focus RS running 400bhp and a decent size mod list. Safe to say didn't hang around with them...
