go on confused dot com and see what that comes up with. I'd advise everyone to do that. You can do it just to test the water, you don't have to sign up with any of them.

coincidently my multi car renewal has arrived this afternoon
................. £365.00 for the coop and the punto.

See there are some advantages to being an old geezer.


would consider swapping place though depending on the rest of your life smile

Chris - this has to be an age thing as I'm with Admiral on a single car policy costing just shy of £500 and I live what, 2 miles from you?

Mrs MABR can't wait til I'm 50 as she thinks the quote will plummet.

I however think it has something to do with a life insurance policy which I'm not supposed to know about! shocked laugh

Hi
Like Mario has pointed out it is your age being the real problem here. Give me a call at Neil Willies and I will see if I can do anything. Ideally in view of your age you need to have access to another car and be able to limit the mileage preferably to 5000 miles per annum or less.
Thanks
Sarah

That's who I'm with and I haven't been able to find anyone cheaper than them for the past three years.

I'll be trying Neil Willies when my renewal is up though, but if not cheaper, will probably be back with Greenlight.

If it makes you all feel better, I've been quoted £500 renewal at 28, with 5 years no claims on a 1.25 Fiesta that's in insurance group 3! That is ridiculous in my opinion. Must be my area though as I can't see any other reason why.

MCI, motorbike insurers!

It's actually £195 with the legal stuff and 1500 mile limit in the end.
