Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Hi all,

    I'll get straight to the point:

    I inherited a fair bit there recently and bought a car; a 2008 VW Golf GTi (200bhp) - not the 30 Version.

    I must admit that I went a bit over the top with all this money flying around, but hey, you only live once.

    So, the car was delivered to my door and is sitting in my driveway now. I'm 23 with a fresh full UK license and have not been able to even get a quote for the car from any insurer that I have tried due to my age & having no NCD.

    FDB, Quinn, Axa, Hibernian, Allianz all refused to quote...

    I don't live in the UK anymore but I've been quoted 5200£/yr.

    Willing to pay that here in Ireland.

    Which company will insure me?

    Just to throw that in: I was of the firm belief that insurance companies are OBLIGED to quote a person even if the quotation itself amounts to a ridiculous amount? Maybe the law has changed since...

    Any answers are much appreciated.

    get back onto the companies and get a letter of refusal from them. you need at least 3. you gotta get onto some group of people, cant remember who. the insurance regulator? someone will confirm. but yes, then you will get a quote, but dont expect it to be reasonable
