So....has anyone had experience with them? First of all, are they legit? Are they good to be with etc?

Did you do a search through www.moneysupermarket.com
Caroline saved 200 quid on her policy by doing a search there and they only list reputable companies. You can also post on the forums and ask if their insurance expert Peter Gerrard has heard of them If something seems too good to be true then it probably it too good to be trueRule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

3k to insure a 306 XSi? Are you sure you've entered everything in correctly. That seems a tad high even for an 18 year old
I put my details in (changed it to the fact that I'm 18) and it came up with a quote for 448 from performancedirect.co.uk. That's assuming I am 18 have 2 years driving experience and have 2 years ncb. Unless your area has a reputation for people firebombing cars there's no reason why you should be getting quotes for 3k. If I'd put myself as being on someone elses policy it could have been cheaper. Just put myself as having a licence for a year and having 1 years ncb and it was 550.
I think I've discovered your problem. I put in some false details for a mother and then added an 18 year old male as a second driver and came up with a 3 grand premium Time to insure the car in your name it seemsRule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

Forgot to also mention to check the excess on the policy. Quite often there is a nice juicy low premium but the insurance companies take you from behind when you have an accident. Check what your excess for an at fault accident is and compare it to the excesses other companies charge.

Oh and finally. Find out who they are underwritten by, you're legally allowed to ask them this. Is it a large underwriter like the Lloyds Group? If so then that's good. Or are they underwritten by some company that trades out of the Cayman Islands? This is not so good because when you go to claim they might not be there. Very much a buyer beware situation with companies you've never heard of.

£3000 pounds for a 2.0litre isn't surprising. My 1.2 was going to be around £1,500 on my own policy, so I went on my mums, but it was still £800 :\
