Extreme_biker0 Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Hello there chaps, the aim of my post is to assertain a round figure of how much you paid for your car insurance, aged around 18. My quotes have been turning up prices of £2000 and the likes, which I think is jolly high and rather a load of codwallop. So if you would be so kind gentlemen as to list how much you actually paid for your insurance, aged 18, not on your mums (or dads), and also say what car this was for. Thank you kindly. Yours sincearly, Extreme_biker0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTM Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Well what car are you trying to get insured on? to be honest, fully comp on anything even half decent, £2000 is probably nearly right! Fully comp on my first car would have been £1300, and that was a 1.1 H reg polo..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 For me: Peugeot 106. 3rd party F&T. No pass plus. ~ £1400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extreme_biker0 Posted January 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 It's a VW golf 1.9TDI, with a red I and silver other letters (it makes a difference). Thing is work's a 25 mile commute on the motorway so I don't want to drive a fiat panda or anything, i'd rather get somat decent or just go on the train. So nobody pays £2000 then?

AdamR28 Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 It's a VW golf 1.9TDI ← I think thats why your quotes are high. Even with a 1.1l, you'll be paying £1k+... Mines only a baby 1124cc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haydon_peter Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 1.9TDI Golf for you first car (Im guessing seeing as your 'around 18') and you think they are quoting you high prices at £2000 :D :D My insurance started the day before my 19th birthday and it was just over £1400 for a 1 litre 106. I few months later I did my pass plus and I now pay just over £700 (£53 per month). Thats with Norwich Union Direct third party fire and theft...

tipsy Jock Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 I'd recomend getting one of your rents as the named driver untill your around 20-21ish. i don't see the point otherwise, any gains you'd make in noclaims you'll lose in the sheer cost of it i think. for example i looked into a 1.3 mini cooper and the best quote i got was around 1500ish, with my dad as the named driver it was £400!! i'm keep trying to steal my mums car lol at the moment she already asks me to use it more than i ask her :( Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

george_seamons Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 You must be joking :D How the hell does that work? :( ← I assume he means £210. Its probably because they share the car, so they share the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyroo Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 Karen (my fiance) pays £700 for fully comp insurance, and for me to be added to her insurance, was an extra £21. We asked why it was so cheap, and it is because its a on a females insurance, and I'm engaged to that particular female too! S'great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
