Re: Insurance. Fookers! (young 172/182 owners look in)
Well heres my story::approve:
Identical to Lukes tbh. went on go compare and got some quotes for a ph1 172 @ £2500. Went and bought one. Spent the whole of the next day (saturday) ringing round for insurance. Everyone was saying £3000+. Broker king and performance direct who were the cheapest on go compare changed thier mind and said £3500! Was really pissed off, really didnt want to have to sell the car.
After reading this thread i waited till Monday and rang Brentacre at 9am. Giving all details, 1 year ncb 2 years driving, 3 points, mum and dad on policy, 3000 miles a year. She come back with a price of £3000. She said "i think im going to make your day. If you modify the car we can do it for £1880!!!"
Result. Unlimited mods for no extra cost. Only condition is that im not allowed to exceed 180bhp.
Over the moon!!!
