So, if I had, for instance, two Volvo S60s (currently paying £200), how much might it cost for Multicar?
Go online and get a quote - it's free (all web based).You do have to proved an email address though.
I've recently switched from two separate policies on two cars - I've added a third car and switched to Admiral - I'm paying a LOT less for three cars than I was for two...

£410 
Who knows, chuck it into their web site and find out but the saving won't be massive. The time saving is the real benefit as you only have 1 policy to worry about.
How about a trader's policy?
MY BIL trades cars on the side and it allows him lots of flexibility - he just calls them up when he gets another car and they add it to the policy - IIRC he can have 5 at the time - there are some restrictions on the type of car he can drive, but isn't too limiting.

Need to actually be trading - they'll check in the event of a claim MY BIL trades cars on the side and it allows him lots of flexibility - he just calls them up when he gets another car and they add it to the policy - IIRC he can have 5 at the time - there are some restrictions on the type of car he can drive, but isn't too limiting.
Not cheap either
Yeah, just went through the site.

but still I'm sure my BIL's trade insurance wasn't too expensive.I cocked up with the insurance on my sheddy MX5. Got another policy via Sky Insurance as I use them to insure my Galant VR4. Went for the pay monthly option. Sold the car last month and when I called to cancel the policy I was told I owe the finance company £90. Always read the terms and conditions folks!

Having two cars seems a bit of a hassle dealing with insurance etc.
Man up! Between SWMBO and I we have 6 cars, admittedly only 4 are on the road at the moment. Can someone please buy this. Cheap as chips and proper PH barge style.

I recently sold a car, and as I'd had the insurance policy for more than 6 months, I wasn't entitled to any refund of the remainder. It's in the T&Cs, but it was the first time I've come across it and I was mildly miffed. No bids at £500 for this S80, the only problem with it is that you'll be upfront instead of enjoying the wafting in the back. Feels like a limo!

That's terrible, Elephant give you a rebate up to 11 months into the policy! Kinda wished I didn't else I'd have 3 years NCB not 1...andy-xr said:

Nice. I loved being wafted around as a kid in my father's S80 (regular 5 seat unfortunately).http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181737932939?_trksid=p20...
£470 of turbo Swede completed the 250 miles home with zero fuss. Could use a brake overhaul, but I'm happy.
Just picked this up for dog duties.
E46, 144k on the clock, only 2 owners from new - tax and mot until end of July. Aside from a weak handbrake tension and a rear light bulb it's sound as a pound and pooch loves the back. Doesn't feel like a step down from 08 1 series coupe tbh.
Took it off a lovely chap for a grand on the nose.
