To keep it all in context. My wife had our family winter jaloppy (at that time a 15 year old Pajero Diesel) broken into at Lakeside Shopping Center. They pushed the drivers door lock in and nicked the radio. Total cost of replacement including a new door skin and lock set came to £317.00. All covered under out Insurance as a "non-fault claim" at Insurance renewal time (three months later). Policy annual premium was increased by £600pa on top of the existing £300pa we were already paying.
We took this to the Ombudsman who ordered the insurers to lower their price but still only to around £500pa.
