We went from two separate LV= policies, to a multi-car one. In this case my wife and I. If you have someone, it may actual be cheaper to have an added driver.

Conversely, after my insurance company (of the naval variety) decided to lose their marbles on a new figure on my multi-car policy I went separates and saved the thick end of £364. I'll take a £20-£30 convenience tax but when they go gaga to that extent...

I'd get quotes for separate policies as well as multi-car policies. I ended off going through Money Supermarket as out of the comparison sites they ended off being the cheapest (even with the same insurance companies, something I had to do a double take at).

This is what I seem tombe seeing, farcical and the naval officer is definitely not reading his charts correctly!

Almost exactly the same saving for me by moving away from a multi-car this year too. Other than some convenience I'm not sure multi car policies have the benefits or savings they make out.

I went with one of the big players (might have been the same naval people) because of their multi car policy. When I went to add a second car and they equalled my max NCD it was more than if I just got it ensured with somebody else - using no NCD.
Utter b*LL*cks.
