I'm 23 (Z4 M Coupe, male, single) and am paying £1300 with Elephant. As i've said, i've got a £2000 excess.

Was curious so just got a new quote - 3 years NCB (used to have 6 - grrr) , 26, just quoted £997 with Admiral through insuresupermarket.com... £400 excess.

Little White Shark, I am sure you can do better than £1000 on a 2.2

I pay £500 with £250 excess with bell for my 2.2, 2 years NCB, male 33 years grey living in south glasgow, parked in the street.

It might just be your postcode has a high number of claiments and therfore its a higher rist area for insurence payout.

~£750 on a 3.0 , 25 with 4 years NCB + protected.

I'm 29 now, in KT22 (Kingston) postcode

Z4MC, full (7 years I think) NCB +protected +legal +hire = £781 with £800 excess.

How bout starting an insurance thread?

^^ There is one, I am just too lazy tonight to go dig it up

Combine Insurance and age in one post. At least it gives me something to smile about...

Hit 50, feel 35, act 20 and mental age of 10, but only pay just over £200 fully comp, protected NCB, etc. on the 3.0i Z

Ah the benefit of age. I can also insure my 6 litre V8 Jeep for £118 PA and a 3.0i X5 sport for another £200...

I'm 38 and just paid £630, with £300 excess on a 2.5, 9 years PNCB, no points of convictions, does that sound expensive? It was the best quote I could find.

I've just turned 30. I'm a SINK(E) Single income, no kids (ever)

insurance wise -
swiftcover £615 (8yrs NCB/Legal Cover/ NCB Protected /£150 excess /3 points for exceeding the speed limit on a motorway ) and £50 cashback from http://www.topcashback.com

28, 5 yrs NCB, west london postcode, no points with swiftcover = £750 fully comp

didnt know about the £50 cashback doh!!!

27 and $230 a month. The Z4 and a 2000 S-10 pickup both fully insured.

There was a thread for UK insurance... is this the one you were referring to?

http://www.z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic ... nce#p32666

On a slightly different note (insurance still)... how come the UK guys all talk about who they are insured with and the best deal, but the US guys never do? Does insurance not work the same over there?

It's because there's about a zillion insurances here, and 50 States (each with their own regulations on coverage). So my $90/month insurance with the one I'm with probably won't help the guy who's in Florida etc.

Rates also will differ slightly depending on the area you live in in the city.

I've also heard that some insurances now look into your credit rating to determine costs too (dunno if that's true?).

Yeh, I think I better have another look at my insurance quote! It was the cheapest I could find on moneysupermarket.com. It can't be to do with the area I live in because there's a Lambo right behind where we live! I think it may be because I crashed last year (not my fault!) but even though my NCB wasn't affected, that may have something to do with it.
