Insurance - New Drivers

<< < (4/4)

Range Rover Blues:
There is little or no logic to insurance quotes, like all this rot about women being safer drivers!  statistically they have more bumps but drive cars that are cheaper to fix, though they also tend not to end up upside down in a field, though don't put money on it.

Where you live makes a huge difference to you theft risk, your age to the 3rd party risk and the value of your own car obviously to the comprehensive risk.

Some insurers look favourable on the SIII as it is slow, others just see the 2.0l pluss engine.  You have to shop around.

For a standard car I'd say Tesco, but I just don't know here.  the reason Adrian FLux are so cheap for me is that they won't touch you, so I won't criticise them for that.

I know nothing about their alternative to pas pluss but then most specialist insurers won't touch you at all under 25 years old.

Pass plus seems to have little or no effect on your premiums

That's not my experiance at all. it's a very useful course and some insurance companies will make it worth your while to take.

Rich_P:
To further add to this discussion, there's an issue I'm going to have to deal with in the near future with my 2A and myself.

Many insurance companies that insure under 21/25 won't touch the 2A because it's too old (Tesco and Co-op for examples).  While the companies that would insure the 2A won't insure under 21/25 drivers on their own policy.

Bit of an awkward situation.  :?

Muddy:
Does anyone have a map of good/bad areas for car insurance?

Range Rover Blues:
Go to your local broker and ask his advice, they can often be cheaper than the direct approach because they sell so many products for the insurance companies that they gaet a massive discount.
