I drive a Ford Focus ST170 which is group 15. As I have 7 years no claims bonus I am insured with First Alternative as they give a 70% discount for lots of no claims. I am 26 and park in an underground parking thing. My insurance is £430. Next cheapest was Norwich Union at over £600! My previous insurer, Zurich were going to charge me nearer £800! Robbing bastards! :evil: Title: Car Insurance Post by: blinkpip on Sunday, July 24, 2005, 21:30:49 I am on Norwich Union and it's a buggar to actually talk to someone unless it's a quote.
Some woman dented my car and it took over two hours to speak to the right person. Useless c*nts. Title: Car Insurance Post by: walrus on Sunday, July 24, 2005, 22:19:57 Behave, 1400 to insure a Scooby isn't bad. You wanna moan about insurance try being a 17 yr old male trying to get insurance. Over 2 grand on a 1.2 engined Corsa, best quote I could find! Albeit a sporty model, that's daylight robbery!
Insurance at the end of the day is a con. When you do need to use it they try every trick in the book to worm out of paying up. Title: Car Insurance Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Sunday, July 24, 2005, 22:22:51 One trick might be putting your wife as main driver, women are always cheaper.

Do you drive a Lambourghini Muchalago (or whatever the new one is called?). We had this discussion in Crawley when we saw one - reg: A8 WAH. It's connected to the club in some capacity - I saw it on it's merry way to Brighton for the playoffs fly past me, and I'm sure I've seen it somewhere else also. Maybe it's following me? Title: Car Insurance Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Sunday, July 24, 2005, 23:11:32 :D Maybe, how did this discussion go.

Title: Car Insurance Post by: Piemonte on Tuesday, July 26, 2005, 08:14:32 Legget, that beemer is grim. It may be fast as hell, but all the z3's are awfull looking cars in my view. give me an M3 any day.

Title: Car Insurance Post by: Piemonte on Tuesday, July 26, 2005, 14:56:33 I'd have to disagree there Leggett, the marmite vote is split roughly 50/50. You're the only one who likes the Z3M!

Title: Car Insurance Post by: Kinky Tom on Tuesday, July 26, 2005, 15:06:16 I like the Z4 too, not really a Beemer fan in general though.
