Insurance and tracker device
- Thread starter RubyBlueZ4MC
- Start date
I insured with LV. cheapest quote for the 'M'. I then phoned them and asked if they'd multicar for my Jag. They agreed to mirror the full 9+ years no claims. Got the two cars fully comp for about £700 all in including business use on the Jag. . Pretty good for a Liverpool postcode. 
Apparently, scrotes lack the self-confidence needed to drive them. 
if it has any relevance to anyone im 23 and have 6 years NCB and have had an admiral multicar policy for 2 years now. the first year of my multicar my //M was £846 and now when i just renewed in January it was only £530 thats with 7k miles and NCB protected aswell. Pretty pleased with that and they were the most competitive by far.
just to let others know aswell, its cheaper to have your car parked on your drive or on the street than it is to say its in the garage...strange i know. but i think they have cottoned on to everyone thinking that it would be cheaper to say its in a garage so bumped the price up. so by selecting street or garage, see how much cheaper it comes out at. weather it is left on the street or drive is up to you though.
other hints like add other drivers like parents/ family etc does also make a difference as everyone knows
try having a go on their website and enter in all your info as you normally would, then try changing where it is kept overnight and see if it makes it cheaper for you. mine did by about £200

They know about it and covered me for not much extra.
On the Tracker issue, I agree with others, I don't think i would want the car back if it was stolen, but if I did, there are much better systems available, (like Navtrak/Cobratrak5 for example) but none of them are cheap.

What you need to check is whether the high cost of a tracker subscription is worth it. When I checked the other day it was £450 for the lifetime of the car or something like £120 a year.
I had a tracker in my Boxster for first year and insured with LV who were consistently cheapest but won't insure many cars without a tracker. The next year it was far cheaper to insure with a company who don't insist on tracker and not renew the tracker subscription.
Not all comparison sites are equal either! The meercat one was £20+ dearer in quote for Saga (wrinklies insurance!) than moneysupermarket. I eventually went with Saga via phone following the online quote as they offered £20 off if you ask for a house insurance quote.
They are the only insurance company I know who include fully comprehensive EU insurance for a full year which is amazing. On the other hand you can't stay abroad in EU all year without license problems etc. but certainly can bob back and forward a few times. That's what I got the Z4 for after all!
Used The Meerkat this morning and am Moving from Flux to Admiral - difference in price between quotes 600 pounds!
Price went down by 5 pounds when I added the carbon grilles to the policy :? - slightly bizarrely the policy has come through from Diamond ... Especially for Girls - oh well must be the silver lining of the EU change on Car Insurance.

I've just been told by LV who previously told me when my renewal is up in May I would have to have a tracker fitted to my 3.0si that now they have reviewed the whole tracker situation over the last 6 months and I may not have to have a tracker fitted at all
