Garage increases car insurance costs
Discussion
Not only that but moving out of a London postcode to a hamlet in Surrey has upped the cost too.
I have a new UK Mustang on order and finally the car can be found on the insurers databases.
GoCompare came up with eSure who had a really reasonable quote of £380 FC. London, parked outside, Business Use, 50 odd years old, full NCB and no claims/convictions.
Today I may well say yes to a little detached house with an integral garage, 30 miles south of London, not far from Guildford.
GoCompare's cheapest quote was again eSure but now £100 more at £480 ????
Do the same again but have the car on drive and it drops to £420 ????? so still more than staying in London where I know for sure it will be damaged, as have all my other vehicles.
My current car, an old e36 is costing me £160 but to move out, it goes up £100 as well.
Can any of you insurance experts explain, especially as I would be sleeping over the garage, being that it was the utility room/workshop.

Makes sense, I suppose, just seems weird that overall it's more expensive than being in a dodgy London postcode where cars and bikes are trashed and get stolen all the time.
My motorbike was vandalised 3 times in a year in theft attempts but I never claimed. Maybe people in war torn areas don't claim as much as the folks in the Shires

But hidden down a dirt track off a barely used road and then parked away from sight
There was me trying to protect my new baby whilst increasing my commuting time/costs/fuel when it seems I might as well stay in London and just accept all the dents/dings/and scrapes before it's gone forever, but I'll be saving money

Oh well, the size has nixed the idea of putting the Mustang in there anyway. It's a good size, length 5.1m by width 2.8m but there are units at the end with a sink and washing machine etc so that's 0.7m taken up leaving only 4.4m.
Big enough for my Beemer but the Mustang is over 4.7m long.
