Just got off the phone with Greenlight, I had to go with monthly installment as I cant aford the whole year in one go due to my recent repair work

It went up, as i knew it would , to £967 with £400 total excess which is the best quote so far which aint too bad i suppose, its only £70 a month after the deposit which is less than i'm paying now It's with an insurer called Highway according to the e-mail

The cheapest after that was elephant at £1100 with £600 total excess and that was yearly payment so would have went up if i wanted monthly payments

Overall I'm quite cuffed I got it under the 1k mark, almost under £900 but hey cant have everything
