Most of the insurance schemes available through comparison sites are mainstream insurers and policies. They are looking for middle aged drivers with sensible 1.6 hatchbacks, low annual mileage, nice postcode etc.

When a company returns a quote like the one above they are essentially telling you that the combination of you and your car are not the type of risk they look to cover.

You always have to speak to a broker in order to be put on an appropriate scheme. If you have any vehicle that for it's class can be considered a performance vehicle then comparison sites are a waste of time. It is annoying though that when insurance is a legal requirement the companies can seemingly just pluck whatever number they like out of thin air.
