Some insurers e-mail all the documents, don't they?

i doubt it and it wont be much good when the police ask to see your certificate

even if you printed it out and took it to the station they will look at the address on the certificate and then the one on your licence and then your stuffed
 
Is it stupid of me to advise selling this car (probably at least a group 10 on insurance) and getting something older and cheaper on the insurance scale.

You could probably sell the GP, by a group1 insurance 2004 Panda and insure if for a year with what you get for the GP.

Perhaps it's just me but alot of youngsters seem to be having to powerful and newish cars as their first, and they wonder why insurance costs the earth.

The car that this thread is about is 2006 Grande Punto Active Sport 1.4 - Insurance Group 3.
 
do a test quote on a 1.2 8v punto or a 1.0 panda or cinq or something and see what you get

cinq and panda are about £500 less. So definitely not an option.

EDIT: just tried IKUBE... thought they will be cheaper, apparently they can't even beat £3200

try insure the box
they are quite a bit cheaper than ikube but do the same thing, just without the extra cost if you go out at night.
