I can insure a Mazda 3 MPS ( 2.3L 260BHP ) for 1000 euros.

Must be down to how rare the car is and thinking about parts if something was to go wrong. Still alot cheaper than UK - (I'm 23 Years old btw ), 2 Years no claims.. Insurance for the 1.6 8v astra was £2000 if i lived at my old address haha

They are OK, just when I had their renewal price it was £100 odd more that the cheapest one on Go Compare.

When I queried it they said it was a new customer discount, first time you go with them????
