80 quattro insurance woes

[leebex]

I`ve just purchased a 1.8 quattro audi 80. A 1988 uk car and the insurance is crippling. Im 27 with 7 years ncb, no points etc and the cheapest quote is £350 a year. For a group 12-14 car this is ridiculous.

Has anyone else been declined and struggled to insure this car. I live in a quiet area and usually get good quotes. But at this rate I may just sell on as its too expensive for a runabout.

Is it cost effective to insure an 88 Audi 80 fully comp?
