what the hell !!!!!!!!!!!

but i see the rest of you pay around the £300 mark so whats going on ?

 

[inigoj]

Have you tried adding an older driver to your policy to bring the price down?

Insuring my dad as a named driver knocked approx £100 off my premium.

Only payed £180 this year.

 

[bigblokey0]

yea my partner is older ive added her but still its more than im used to paying what companies are you ppl with ?

 

[inigoj]

After going through the moneysavingexpert proceedure i ended up with Esure as the cheapest for me.

Being old does have its benefits...

I go with Directline, I get a discount for paying online and if you have two policies at the same address you get 10% off, Im not interested in a courtesy car and I put my excess up to the highest amount possible, my Bora was £265 for the year.....

JESUS!, almost a £1k premium for a Ban!! Drink driving or speeding may I ask?

I'm paying around £450 for my S3(all mods declared) with 6 points on my licence and 6 points on the other halfs also.

 

[speedfreek]

I'm 25, 7 years no claims, 31 year old partner on policy, SP30 - Lowest quote so far is £370 for the year with directline.com

I will be going back to A-plan to get them to better it though.

Shop around all the comparison sites etc and you should get a smart deal.

 

[bigblokey0]

well the cheapest i found in the end was adrian flux @ £367.12

WOW! You got proper done then, I was pulled over for undertaking once(undertook an OAP doing 20 in the right lane in a 30), I admitted it as soon as the copper got to my window, he just said don't do it again. - Phew!

Why on earth would you pay that!?!? £3000 a year!!

Your car looks nice, but 3 grand!!? Why is it so much?

 

[ChriS3]

There's no way I'd pay that much for insurance, just couldn't justify that to myself.

I'm only £500 for the RS.

 

[Geordie Mike]

£600 for RS6 + civic on Admiral's multicar policy

Clearly a bunch of old timers, or you have very good postcodes!

 

[ChriS3]

Old; live in the countryside; no accidents; no points; good at blagging my way out of things with the coppers.

 

[Geordie Mike]

Oi!!! I'm 29!!!

Aberdeen is a good postcode though.

 

[AndyMac]

Just renewed mine, £192 fully comp with LVE (that's for a year, not per month!), but am an old fecker! Works out at exactly £1 per BHP

OMFG £3k+ a year and your 33. surprised (no) noclaims and 6 points would put it up that much.

Whats your postcode? baghdad?

 

[warren_S5]

Mine went up this year from £350 to £400, and despite looking about couldn't get it cheaper. 7 yrs no claims, no points, mods declared.

Yeah, mine went up by around £50 also, 11 years NCB, 6 points(both me and the missus!) and all mods declared.

Me neither...
I'm about 600 on the 911.

£270 a month? I'd want a Platunim plated tuned Zonda for that sort of cash...not a poxy A3.

You'd probably get a Zonda for less than that! Just had a hunt round the internet and it seems I can get insurance on a Murcielago LP640 for less than £1400 a year. Shame I can't afford the car

 

[sidibear]

Mine is £1100 with Audi insurance, business use and a ****** postcode. They agreed to accept the 9yrs no claims I had lost due to going on a classic policy, no one else would and the cheapest was £2400.


My Cossie was £126 F/C all mods declared, £4k agreed value and salvage retention.

 

[MintyS3]

I pay about £500 with 5 ncb, 5 points, 25 yo, car is in the countryside in a garage.

With Tesco currently.
