Insurance Black Box

[B3ALP]

Anyone have any experience of these Good or Bad?
Looks very much like this is the way I am going to have to go for the Boy.
Can't help but think it will take the fun out of it a little

What car is he looking to get insurance on?

1.0 Polo / Lupo, Yaris or an old caddy pickup

I'd not touch one myself..

They mark you on acceleration/braking, so you'll get punished for doing an emergency stop to prevent killing a child, same for avoiding a fox in the road... too black and white.

REALLY?
I thought they were based on an average not one event.

I've got one so far after six months all is good, it must have saved me atleast 3k. Be careful though some fine you for bad driving or driving at night, mine is just millage based so all is good

So it just monitors how many miles you do a year?
How many did you declare?

It does monitor how i drive, but it only effects my renewal quote. I am on a 6,000 mile policy with extra miles if i drive well with tesco ins.

Oh OK good to know, it is Tesco that we have had the best quotes from.
Thanks.



AND
Cheers Ash, I will be in touch.
