CV 66 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 My last renewal was just over £400 fully comp. with Aviva. My insurance always seems to hover around that amount even though I haven't put in a claim for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 After getting my ST mountuned I had to insure it as modified because Esure don't recognise the upgrade as many others do, and it worked out at about £540 ish for a year although I only have about 6 months left on it. I've seen quotes below £500 though :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanW Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 £500 ish (-£25 cashback, but the £500 was the same on other comparison sites too) Mk2.5 Focus Zetec on a 60 plate with a 1.8 petrol engine. 2 years NCB, 1 at fault claim (oops), 26yo, license held for 5 years 11 months, 2 weeks and 1 day* (at time of renewal lol) Dad on the policy (shaved about £15 off). *Last year, Admiral put that down as 5 years as opposed to 4 (and 11 months, 2 weeks and a day). This year, Octagon didn't care that I was only 13 days short of 6 years, so it's down as 5 years again. If I'd been at sea, I might of arranged for it to be off the road for 2 weeks & SORN it before restarting on the anniversary of my license date lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza01 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 My insurance was 600 on a 2008 1.8 focus titanium. I'm 29 been driving five years just got my fourth year no claims but my current insurance company (first central) who I have been with for two years and my renewal came in at 2500 with no explanation they could give me for this huge increase. So today I'm looking for new insurance. Octagon quoted 432 but I'm not sure on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanW Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 If in doubt, have a look at defaqto. (Edit: Octagon standard and extra car insurance is rated 3-star & economy is 2-star) I'm going with the hope that they can't be any worse than Quotemehappy. Who, whilst excellent when dealing with an accident have an awful customer service team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza01 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I got my insurance sorted today. Got a quote with Adrian flux for £460. I tried ford insure but they quoted me 1800 and something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figgis41 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I see age is a large factor still,,, ok you get the boy racer age but when your 25+ its still a factor looking at some of the posts i see on the internet.mine this year is £320 for the wife and myself full comp with 8 yrs nc on a 2012 1.6tdci focus titanium. My motorbike is £82. im 49 the wife is 42. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 My motorbike is £82. I'm surprised how low that is. That suggests that it's the risk of causing injury or death to someone else, rather than yourself that increases the price more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmizz93 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I'm 21, 4 years driving, 3 years NCB from Aylesbury and insurance was just over £500 for the year! thought that was pretty reasonable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I'm 21, 4 years driving, 3 years NCB from Aylesbury and insurance was just over £500 for the year! thought that was pretty reasonable! That's really good, I'm 26 with 9 years driving and 4 years no claims, I just looked at some quotes and the lowest is around £540 with total excess of £150 and protected no claims. Adding my dad reduces the premium by about £20 lol, I think I missed a trick there. Edit: and adding my mum reduces it by a further £65 lol. Thats and £83 reduction for adding my parents, that's mental. And adding my brother who is just 3 years younger than me and has no claims, adds £160 :( Another edit: and also the insurance companies finally recognise that there is such a thing as an ST3 with the mountune upgrade. Took them long enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Just got my renewal through from esure at £168 before any extras £228 with everything added on. That's with 4 years ncd but me being 55 is a bit of a winner. Never thought being old would be this good haha.

Phil 87 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I might be able to get a reduction for having a dashcam next time. I don't know how many insurers give a reduction but I know Swiftcover do. I wonder how it works though, if you say you have a dashcam do you have to provide footage of any accident otherwise they won't pay out? It can't be that harsh though, maybe they would just make you pay a higher excess if you don't have the footage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieM Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 My total premium is around £950 with aviva for my ST (23 with 2 years NCB). Cheapest quote was £600 with admiral but would have meant cancelling aviva policy (£80) plus buying gap insurance and then losing about 5 months towards my 3rd year NCB. Was cheaper at the time to just pay off the rest of the aviva policy (£650). Plus aviva is just a much better company and offer new car replacement which removes the need for gap insurance.

thatfiestaguy Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 ImageUploadedByFord OC1412891182.167707.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC That is an f'ing good price! I've been driving since January 2013, (passed test then), been a learner since August 2012. I did want a Zetec S, I have two years no claims, although admiral have allegedly proved I have 3 years NCD/NCB (They factor in time spent as a learner apparently). I would have gone for a Zetec S, but even with 3 years NCD and a Pass Plus qualification I was still being quoted £1,000-£1,300... Ended up going for a 1.4 TDCi 2011 reg Fiesta and even that's costing me £695 for a year's Comprehensive cover, although that does include legal assistance, windscreen cover, personal injury cover up to £10,000 and some other gubbins. How you managed to get that quote I'll never know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting you say that about Aviva... May have to give them ago as I didn't take the GAP ins out in time, do you have to have a policy with them before you purchase a car or any other stipulations? My policy is due for renewal any week now and I'm itching to save me some £££££ :') Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also go through Quidco. Currently £50 cashback for new aviva policies. Have to wait a little bit but a nice little bonus in a month or so time. Let me know if you want me to invite you to join quidco (i get a little bonus for you signing up :D) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
