Tesco may be worth a try, I'm currently paying about ?400 a year with no excesses (thats with 9yrs NCB) although the car isn't modded in any way.

The reason the job title effects the premium is all down to risk weighting, effectively the insurance companies all rank different jobs according to factors that they think will increase, or decrease, the chances of a claim being made. This is calculated based on many factors, including previous claims history for that specific title. Jobs that could involve working long hours, lots of travelling, high stress etc carry a higher risk than a low stress 9-5 job. Thats why my job is listed as a Customer Services Advisor rather than an IT helpdesk manager. You just have to apply a bit of lateral thinking ;-)
