The insurance compared to a MK3 golf (GTi or otherwise) will always be allot more on the Cupra!
I appreciate it might be slightly more (although not understanding why, they aren't that dissimilar in power and I have gained another years NCB) but I am getting a lot higher and some of the quotes seem ridiculous and have an extremely high excess
Insurance is based on lots of things, most of them are witchcraft and voodoo from what I can gather.
I would argue with you on the power front... But some other reasons
Cost of repairs would be higher on the Leon
Age is a big factor, I don't know how old you are but adding someone older as a named driver will always lower the premium.
Insurance group on the Cupra is allot higher from memory.
Have you moved recently?
Points?
Accidents?
Value of the Leon will be higher as well
Have you tried the usual comparison sites like Go Compare, Compare the market etc?
Adrian Flux used to do good deals as well although i am not sure about that some much these days!
Thats the thing, lots of little differences all add up to one big price difference by the end, also worth bearing in mind that car insurance has once again gone up on average of around 12% IIRC!
I'm with Adrian flux, £630 on my cupra r, for me and the wife. Fully comp with 8 years no claims. I'm 31 but it only went up 20 quid this year!
