How much would your car insurance change if....

[amir_j]

Try this- go to a car insurance site and put in your details, then repeat with gender changed to female and post what you get.

For a 635d coupe mine goes up £300! Always assumed women's would be cheaper.





Note: No I am not considering a sex change before you start , was too lazy to type in OH's details

Ford Escort 1.8 SI My details - £2244.50

Hmm.. I wonder how much 'the chop' is..

[Dyl]

20 years old, driving 3 years, 2 years ncb on my Corsa

Male - £613

Female - £497

Not that great a saving, but still annoying

[kambites]

I don't know but putting my wife on my insurance (on the Lotus) brings it down by 200 quid. She's five years younger than me and holds only a Bulgarian driving licence.

Hmm, thinking about it.. It wouldn't count.

Its an undelcared modification

[sebhaque]

Strange, my quote comes out as £5331.77 as the cheapest - I'm paying a bit over half of that. Uh oh for renewal time, I guess.

As a female, it's £3028.50.

Hmm, maybe I'll go from Seb to Sabrina come renewal. just kidding

DAMN AND BLAST! Foiled again.

[Carpie]

I wonder what the law would say about you declaring yourself as a woman. Just claim you feel that is your true gender, how can they say any differently, make you whip out your old boy in court to prove you're a bloke. I bet there's no necessity to prove you've had a sex change.

[kavanagh]

I think its worth paying a little bit more being a bloke!.












Would you rather pay less and be a woman ?.Hellll nooo!.
They have to spend the difference in insurance cash on tampons!...

[Lucie W]

I was paying £32 a month on my old '96 Clio. I sold it last year to a young guy who is a few years older than me (I'm 21), and he is now paying £2500 a year to insure it. Ouch. I could insure a 996tt for less than that.

[Jeffmaniac]

Spent my first 3 months of my insurance career in a motor claims logging team for a major insurer.

It became obvious within a few days that women had lots of small car park dinks or small bumper dents. Men had very few accidents but normally write offs with big injuries.

I promise that the pricing is for a reason.

(And by the way I have never claimed in 10 years)
