I was paying just shy of 500 for V70 just got an xc90 £800 I'm 46 with full no claims. It's another rip off... Not helped by all the whiplash claims etc but they'll squeeze everyone for all they can get, and they've complicated the insurance numbers used to be 1-20 now mine is 34/46 whatever that means Quote Link to post Share on other sites
