insurance shopping is quite depressing.
currently looking on comparison sites, confused.com to be precise as its been the best one.
for the record im 23, only been driving 3 years, have 2 ncb, and the car is an 8l S3.
best quote so far has been £1078, fully comp, 8000 miles per year (hopefully) with admiral.
comparing this to last years premium of just over £2000 and its excellent! i cant complain. But, can i get any better?!
ive discovered that the only variable affecting the cost is mileage. i had heard that changing your occupation slightly, for example if your a manager, instead state normal staff, so not changing it so much that its invalid, that this can alter the price, but ive not seen this.
my question is are the comparison sites really that competative? or will i find phoning around, speaking directly with companies and being competitive more effective in reducing my premium?
im going to try phoning a couple tomoro(sunday) hopefully some offices are open.
thanks for any advice and input based on your experiences.
