Have I missed something or what.

Im trying to get Insurance sorted for the ZS.

In December i paid ?725 fully comp

I now have 6years no claims and the cheapest quote i can get is

?790 with a excess of ?1050!!!!!!

or ?1200 with a excess of ?800

Ive been checking arround and thats what everyone seems to be coming back at.

so i put my MGF in just to see. im paying ?505 for that fully comp at the mo.

renewal ?800!!!!!!!!

WHY has it all gone up. I thought the whole idea was it went down!
whats the point in keeping my licence clean for 6years when it goes up. its ******* crazy!

Im not paying that, eather someone comes up with a cheaper quote or its good bye ZS!

Sounds very steep.

Thought the ZS was on it's way anyway .... ?

yeah I planned on getting another one.

I need some cash to give to my dad but ive got enough for a Mk1 180

But if i can not insure it then it wont be happening.

seriously unfair.

Just to say that I did some quotes last month and i got a quote back at ?690
the same company this month ?1098

Is that with the same company? If you haven't claimed you should get it for the same money (or less) from the same company you are with.

I go though A-Plan normally.

the company im with now has gone to the administrators so will be a new company
they tend to go by what the comparison websites say.

i was expecting it to be ?600 or less this year.

i can not belive my MGF has gone back up to ?800 aswell. that should be under ?450!

I'm gutted. ive only got ?600 saved for the insurance

Squeaks · 29-09-10, 04:39 PM

just got a quote from direct line for ?798 with ?450 excess.

still stupid.

then add the ?130 for 6months road tax.

thats a hell of alot of money.

that scraps my plans for a subaru next year then!

Why do you think the roads are full of people without insurance?!

Squeaks · 29-09-10, 05:29 PM

yeah and putting up the insurance on us who pay for it is only going to cause more uninsured drivers

Did you do this online or did you speak to them in person?

Have you considered a multicar policy?

Squeaks · 29-09-10, 06:09 PM

Nah im only insuring the zs for the winter months while the MGF is hibernating, would cost nearly 2k to insure the 2
