Insurance costs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[steve1]

What are you people paying for ins. these days, have a multi-car policy that used to cover my bmw, ( now sold ), and my little runabout, but they won't touch a noble on that, so have to cancel part of that and search for seperate ins. some of the qoutes I have been getting are frightening.
Have to wait until 2morrow for a qoute from A-Plan.
I know it's all about age/risk etc etc. but I am well the other side of 21 and live in a low risk area, car garaged, full no claims.
Yet the lowest qoute so far is about 900 quid, although that is off confused website, so probably not the best people to talk to.
Is this about normal for one of these cars.

I'd be interested in their response Steve. Especially as, 3 weeks ago, they told me they don't touch Nobles directly any more (and put me through to a stupid/waste of time call center partner company).

Insured my 3R through Classic Line, limited mileage (5000) garaged full NCB etc including the wife for £550. Their phone number is 01455 639000.

I had a few problems getting insurance or really high quotes from most people but privilege were easily the cheapest.

I`m 27 (5ys no claims) and they charged £680 with limited mileage of 4000.

A plan quoted around £1700 and endsleigh quoted £1300.

They are very good and their MD used to own an M12 too!

Mine is with ClassicLine as well ( just renewed 2 weeks ago ). Same deal as above, £750. I might be able to get it cheaper elsewhere but because I've always been impressed by their service so I've stuck with them. They are in the UK and their phones are not answered by some cretin in India who can't understand a word you say. When I rang to renew I'd hardly finished saying my name and they said "Ah yes, renewal on the Noble".

I'm with Privelege, and before that MSM, both gave good quotes at the time.

[steve1]

Just filled in the on-line form for Privelage, and £452, now that's better.
Will wait and see if a-plan can beat that, if not then i will try Classic.

That's what I thought, it goes up a bit if you add protected no claims and legal protection, but are they really worth it.
If you do happen to claim they only end up loading you when it comes to renewel. But I suppose the legal stuff is handy, what with all the un-insured scum-bags around these days.

IMHO...
Legal protection - yes, for £20. You get a barrister and all costs paid should it go to court.

NCB - I tend not to opt into this (famous last words!)

[Iaing01]

I was 26 when I bought the m400 and its £900 to insure with direct line. I'm now 27 so i'm hoping my premium drops a little this year!

First time I did the no claims protection I stuffed the first M12 into a crash barrier .
Went up £100 a year.

[steve1]

Sorted, went with privelage in the end, £497, this includes legal and protected no claims.
Didn' need proof of tracker either, which suprised me.
All I need now is the car, ( picking up 2morrow ).

Steve.

[sc00by57]

What car did you get in the end??? Looks like i might have a GTO-3 also...

[peterguk]

I had a great quote from Classic Line today.

One question - is it a "conventional" policy, where a claim free year would accumalate another year's NCB, or is a "classic" type policy that is cheap, but doesn't attract NCB?

[steve1]

With a classic policy you don't need NCB, but it is best to register it with them, as after 2 years it will run out if you don't use it.
