She was the only reason that Pondrew made an appearance here as it was her car :lol:

Just had my renewal notice from Carole Nash. It's their six wheel policy so it covers the Zed and my Triumph motorbike.
Comprehensive cover.
£423.55
Thats cheap, I would have stayed with the company if I had the same quote just for the one G29.

I saw the premium graph with a correlation between renewal point and the amount of weeks before you start looking at getting quotes. According to that, it is cheapest at 6 - 8 weeks before renewal. The closer you get, the more expensive.

The other thing is the job title thing

Try getting a quote for more than 30 days away though.

I called Admiral today and got my renewal down by nearly £300 pounds without any effort which has bought the price down to the same as last year. Probably due to removing Beth off a car as she is at Uni this year. Guess I can't complain too much now.
 
Wow :o

Thats the cost of a decent Rolex that will go up in value.

To think the 3rd year renewal will overtake the initial purchase cost :cry:

Must be about 17 with a few points on the licence?

Obviously more money than sense

Think they're 20, I can't believe you would buy the car then think about insurance :roll:

Madness.

Or he’s making it up :wink:

Don't think he is to be honest, there's plenty of early twenty somethings who think it's reasonable forking out 5k and over for insurance :lol: think the lad is actually lucky to get a quote.

At 20 it is highly unlikely they are earning enough to pay that premium, bank of mum and dad hence why they are not worried.

Bought my first car at 19 which was a 1.2 Toyota Starlet think it cost £2400 which I thought was a fortune at the time and took out a bank loan :) my dream car at the time was either an Opel Manta GTE or a MK1 Fiesta XR2i but couldn't afford the insurance :(

Seems these days if kids pass their driving test their parents buy them a car as a reward :cry:

I was lucky in that respect Ron, my dad taught me to drive as he was an advanced police driving instructor, luckily I passed at first go :D

My old boy said he sometimes drove while in the Army on active service (WW2) but he never ever drove post war.

So I just had to pay up!

Fortunately my 10 lessons and pass first time was just affordable as an apprentice in those days of 1965/66
