Insurance prices are laughable.. The more NCDs I earn the more I pay every year. Insurance companies have become very greedy.

Not greedy, opportunistic. Motor insurance is compulsory so they can do what they like!

I will post my details when i renew next month. My current insurance was transferred to my Aygo last month so just paid an admin fee to do that. I am expecting it to be a similar price so we will see.

I have just had my renewal quote from Admiral and they are wanting £370 which is about £90 more than i was paying on my old car.

OK it's a newer car and worth more money and all that but i will do some shopping around and might even take up the deal i was offered when i bought my Aygo.
