Car insurance

Hi everyone.
I'm 36 years old and have held a full driving licence for ten years yet my insurance premiums do not reflect this. Last time I renewed I was told it was because I don't work. This doesn't seem fair to me. Does anyone have any experience they can pass on to me?
Thanks in advance, Roo

The last time I was quoted I was literally told it was high because I don't work. So really I was wondering if anyone had had any specific experience with specific insurance companies.
Thanks
Take some time and look at the comparison sites
