Insurance
The best thing to do is to shop around. There are loads of comparison sites around these days, and it'd be best to get a few quotes to make sure you're getting the best deal to suit your own particular circumstances.

If you can't be bothered with it all, you might want to look at one of the sites that buy used cars. Do a search by entering "buy my car" in your favourite search engine and you'll see links to several companies that do this. We don't or can't endorse these companies ourselves, but it might be a good way of selling your existing car.
