Quote me happy

[bradderztvr]

Just renewed insurance.....cheapest quote ever in the 2yrs of ownership...£95.06. KGM Policy. (1500 mls)

[mrzigazaga]

Mines just gone down by £29...Might not sound much but in south London its enough to get you in or out of trouble... I think its the first time i have ever had insurance actually drop, Perhaps they are starting to catch more scummy drivers who don't insure, MOT or TAX their cars...

...ANPR...

[KKson]

Mine is due January. Currently Adrian Flux - will have a good ring around to check prices. Did insure for 3,000 miles last January but had used those by August so had to increase to 5,000 miles and another £50. Oops.

[bradderztvr]

not sure 1500 will be enough, so might have to pay a but more later in the year

[mrzigazaga]

Oh i forgot to say...Unlimited miles..One car only no second car needed..National breakdown cover and an agreed value of 5K with a £150 excess...£460...It may sound high but this is Sin City!....Ziga

[KKson]

Ouch - £460? The joys of living in the back of beyond! Was £126 last time and I think I was robbed.

Trust me mate...Thats cheap!...I was once quoted 9K for a 420SE....

They bumped mine up this year because they said I've changed my car too often. I didn't know there was a minimum and maximum period of ownership. I've never claimed anything from them ever, yet still the increase. In fairness though, I have insured this one for more money, as I paid more for it and intend to spend a lot more, and allow for appreciation.

Woooaaaahhhhhh 9k

thank goodness it only costs me £250 / 3000 miles

[adam quantrill]

That's nothing on the last Jeep renewal the largest quote was £12k, and hear in mind this is a car with a book value of £300, and they still imposed an excess of £250!

Put it this way mate..It works out to around 1.30 per day..Theres not much for less that makes me smile so much....Well apart from the Sun or Daily mirror newspapers which used to make me smile everyday for 20p......I wonder how much a used paper mache effigy of Linda lusardi is worth ..

Priceless.

[Sireatalot]

My insurance is up for renewal early Feb.

For this current year, I'm with Admiral on one of there multicar policy's - The Celica, 14000 miles and the 350i on a valuation agreed, classic policy with 4000 miles - both insured for business use, both fully comp, cant remember the excesses but not high. all for £306.

I seem to remember the Celica on its own was about £270 !!

[c pryor]

Was with Adrian Flux. £182 (5000 miles per year). The only downside was receiving no refund when I cancelled the policy (although there was still more than 6 months left to run). Just sold the 350 a couple of days ago:-(

Well put it this way... "Its been repaired a LOT"....

[JumboBeef]

I'm on £147/5,000 miles.

But 5,000 isn't going to be enough. Already at 3,500 with six months to go.....

[adam quantrill]

Beefy you can usually buy a "top up". I used to insure for 2500 and then top up to 7k for about £30-£40.

[MethylatedSpirit]

I'm £340 renewal for 10k/year, 6.5k agreed value.


Not bad for a 23 year old student.
