Temporary car insurance for 3-4 months

Hi all
I'm needing insurance on my car for only 3-4 months (fully comp). I've done some comparison sites and quotes and if i want a rolling 28 day insurance I have been quoted £457 per month. I've also been quoted £180 per month committed to 3 months. This is very expensive considering a whole years insurance is only £600.
Any ideas on how i can get this down? Should i commit to 12 months then cancel when i don't need it? Any inusurers offer better cancellation terms than the others?
Any info greatly received.

Buy a whole years insurance. Cancel what you dont use.

Just look for annual policies and factor in the cancellation charge into the quote. Usually between £30-£500
