well i was gonna get a quote from hic but i was on hold for 45 mins and then they decided to answer the call and said there really busy can i call back later, fooking waited on hold for 45 mins too the wankers



oh and ever notice hic's system crashes alot when ya want a wuote and get told to calkl back aswell


id rather get done for no insurance then give them the price or a happy meal


im with performance direct i think, its a norwich union policy, pay 500 quid a year on me 1300 and i can drive any car on that policy


and i got 9 points, 5 convictions and just past a extended driving test a year before and got 1 years no claims

Not being funny mate, but u'd be better off not insuring it, if you had a bump in it, HIC would turn round and say the car is not worth the money. Your probably paing more for the insurance than what the car is worth. I yp say iys only a run around. Get a mini dude
