Informing your insurance company about certain things is the right way to do things yes. But they do use a tad of common sense. If they put people off insuring their car too much, people will just drive without it and pay the £300 fine when they get caught

A mate of mine wrote his Golf off a year or two ago. The MOT had just expired, it was an import, they thought it was a UK car, it was a 135 BHP model, they thought it was the 110 BHP and even though they knew all this, they still paid out in full. I don't believe things like stickers affect insurance as that's more to do with taste, and not even Insurance companies can predict a criminals taste!

My advice, stick with small economical cars for a few years, build up your NCD and then get a nice ride when you're in your 20's. I had 4 or 5 cars all with engines 1.0 litre or less which helped me save on running costs. Now aged 23 i have a tuned 170 BHP Abarth 500, a small insurance premium and a few bob in the Bank as a result of this
