Linx Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 My insurance has gone up nearly £100 this year. I compared my renewal notice with a couple of comparison sites and it seems about right. Sent from my HTC Desire 530 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilrathal Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I've had a fun few days with Aplan canceling my policy a month after be taking it out after THEY screwed something up. That was for first year on the scooby and first performance car and that come in at £1170. was planning on doing a few mods hence going with them. I've taken out a new policy with Admiral for £911 mods and options declared. If your cars are lightly modified they may be a good shout.

Sandals Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Mine went up a whopping 40 quid... didn't really have time to shop around so just let it roll over... still pretty decent at £444 with the flux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seminole81 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I got a quote for £750 I think for the year (could be £900 can't remember) with Admiral with one or two mods, but nothing ridiculous. My wife is older than me, and has the no claims (15+ years). She's got a company car so I used her no claims to put me as main driver on my 06 STi. Also put her Mam down (who will never drive the car) on policy as it lowered the premium even more. Not too bad considering I've never driven a "performance car" in the UK and have 1 accident (my fault) back in 2013 (I think?). Plus I have 2 claims (£1000 each, 2017) in from my stepdaughter getting her car through my work vandalised which is annoying... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll never drive my car in a million years. was £1200 with Admiral before that so i'm not complaining :D I can sort of understand the performance car part especially as my previous car was well a 1.0 corsa xD Riding a bike for 5 years did help also. I get screwed from being in south east and the lovely theft rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I'm with First Alternative, they charged me £1000 for 12 months including a Cobra exhaust system. They go up per mod... so not great for someone who likes to tinker! However they did beat all of my specialist quotes by a long shot.. so worth a punt!

Pixyflash Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Not sure if it's just cuz I'm really old, good area, or I'm plain lucky. My insurance isn't due for a while but I thought I'd get a quote just to keep up to date, I've heard a lot about it going up quite drastically. Driving an unmodified '14 sti, £100 voluntary and £195 compulsory... Screenshot of my emailed quotes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfy Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I'm paying nearly 2K! I'm only 22 with 3 years no claims though. If I purchased the car in 2015, my quote was £900 which I can't see the logic as it doesn't necessarily mean I have more experience with the car because I could have had it sorn for a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KlassicSubi Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Hi mate, I tried Flux which came back with a £1200 quote with waffley reasons as to why it was so high. Then tried a price comparison website and managed to get 1st central at £450 with 2 drivers, fully comp, etc. It is worth shopping around daily as policies do change. Good luck with the search!!

Pixyflash Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Went with Direct Line. £324 fully comp, me & the Mrs, £500 total excess, doing 10k per year. Not bad considering the rises of late. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Just insured my missus on a 13 plate fiesta ST for £800ish a year. She's only had her full license a month. Only took her near on 6 years to finally take the practical. Passed first time and all that. Called up flux for myself with the scoob. They quoted me 900 with a black box! I'm only paying 650 now with all details identical. Fell off my chair when I heard that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
