Classic British Flight Sim

It pays to shop around....check this out.....

I got my policy renewal from NU last week..... £1298.99 with a £520 excess.... much the same as last year. Thats for a 25 year old with 1 year NCB on a Peugeot 306 1.9TD.

Anyway, having shopped around I've now gone with Quinn Direct. £749.22 with £130 excess. Bargain

Vauxhall Frontera 2.0ltr. Insured with SAGA. £250 PA £100 excess.

Sometimes there are rewards with old age.

That sounds pretty steep either way CB, you're a couple of years older than me and your car isnt likely to be a great deal quicker than mine and certainly no bigger and I got my first ever policy last year with More Than for about £600 including breakdown cover and I could have saved more if I had bought online.

I don't think that performance is a major factor anymore Toby. My insurance company told me it's the desirability to theives and cost of replacement parts that are the real factors.

And of course the all important postcode.

When I had a motorbike (Suzuki SV650S) I paid £1346 TPF&T. When I then moved to Braintree, Essex, the premium dropped to £646.

Gotta love Luton, such a classy place.

Drop the "cl" and it's about right

Desirability is very probably a major factor as Fournier pointed out. No disrespect Toby but park a 306 1.9TD next to a Rover 45 and the Pug is gonna get knicked every time mate. The 1.9TD is a good engine in it's own right and worth taking let alone attached to 4 wheels and a body

I would imagine the 306 1.9TD is a fair bit quicker than a Rover 25 as well, unless you've got a 1.6 or 1.8?

There's also the probability that insurance companies see 1.9 litre turbo plus 25 year old driver equals boy racer and charge accordingly! The fact that it's a diesel makes no difference.
