I did the same when ibought my new scorpio,  iggy pop wanted another 200quid which would have put my insurance over a monkey,  so I shopped around a bit (and told a few porkies......ssshh) went back to iggy pop and got it reduced by 98 quid on my original insurance.  Which just confirms what I've always thought,  they just give you a stupid qoute in the hope you just accept.  Rule #1. NEVER EVER accept the first qoute. Btw my insurance is 274 full compliance

I can understand that. Grin
 
This might explain ~ 4th paragraph:
 
http://www.guardian.co.uk/money/2009/apr/29/iggy-pop-swiftcover-insuranc e-advert-ban
 
The gist of the ads IIRC is Iggy has such a "full life" he doesn't have time to faff about but can get his car insurance off the Internet in just 30 seconds. Or something like that
