DNStuff Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I got a £7000 quote to insure a four year old 1.4 fiesta when I first learnt to drive. I have no idea how they work their prices out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Nick. Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I hope that's with the 15% Online discount! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedgepig Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 How much??? Are they taking the p*ss or what? What are you trying to insure---a flipping Ferrari? I'd give that company a really good swerve if I were you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted August 13, 2009 Author Share Posted August 13, 2009 this is for my 1.25 fiesta!!! i was horrified, third party was a whole £100 cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 these are priced bcause they dont want your business... its like on confused.com have really expensive quotes, they simply priced to not have your business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poohbear Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Direct line...cheapest for me everytime! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedgepig Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Direct line...cheapest for me everytime! I found Direct Line to be expensive--whereas confused.com; compare the meerkat; go compare; tesco compare etc etc are the best places to go as most of the time they will trounce companies who are not on any comparison website.

gaz6076 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I saved nearly £900 with direct line! They were the only company that would take on my no claims from my bike policy. Even when I typed in my no claims on gocompare.com it still worked out around £100 cheaper to go with direct line and you get alot more foe your money... Getting hit by an uninsured driver for example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I think most people have a company that is cheapest for them every time - it all depends on personal circumstances. For me, it's Virgin. Directline are silly money for me as are Aviva. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reel105 Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 this is for my 1.25 fiesta!!! i was horrified, third party was a whole £100 cheaper Hey Michael It might be worth taking a look at Quinn Direct (http://www.quinn-direct.com). They're an insurance company based in Ireland (although they provide cover for UK drivers) who specialise in insuring younger drivers. Even at the age of 24 they're still working out the cheapest for me. I think the whole car insurance market is one big scam to be honest. I appreciate that it needs to be there in case of accidents but the criteria they use to determine prices is absurd. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichellefromEssex Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I am using Quinn for my daughters car (she is on provisional license atm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted August 16, 2009 Author Share Posted August 16, 2009 quinn direct is perfect for learner drivers but then as soon as you pass it shoots up to a rediculous amount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichellefromEssex Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 yeah agree, it doubles, but it was still cheaper than anywhere else, get a couple of years clean driving out the way and you will see the premium start to fall again.

Bashful Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 car insurance wise its pretty crap yeah!! What's been your cheapest quote then? Elephant and Admiral seem to be quite cheap and you only need 10 months to get one year no claims. I think Sheila's wheels was cheapest for me but you fail their qualifications!

paulworthing Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 my cheapest quote is with direct line which is £1,700 Not being nasty but is your car even worth that amount. No wonder people don't bother and drive around uninsured! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
