I hate car insurance!

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:

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.

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.

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?
