How much do you pay for insurance

[kasper]

direct line £326 cls 350 cdi 8000 miles a year

 

[lisa110rry]

L:V, £170 fully comp, protected no claims for the Merc, £196 for the Honda, same spec.

The difference was explained to me as "if you hit something in the Honda, it will stay hit".

 

[iRadiate]

£560.
Just got my licence back after a 6 month ban (points totted up to 12) which is why it's so high. Otherwise would have been around the £250 mark.

SLK only carries one passenger, CRV carries up to 4 (?). So in the event of having a bad day in the SLK potentially less liability for the insurer vs a bad day in the CRV.

SLK has ESP - does the CRV have a similar system from Honda? If not then the the SLK will be less likely to be involved in a single vehicle accident. So likelihood of a bad day in the SLK may be lower as a result.

Around £900 fully comp with protected NCB for my CL500, with my wife as a named driver, both late 20s and with Axa. I have 7 years no claims and do around 6k miles a year.

Had a quote from Hastings via the meerkats but decided to stick with LV as have house insurance with them also.

£148 on the SLK last month, I can live with that.

Keep up with the payments all you high risk boys, the insurance companies need you to subsidise my cheap premiums.

 

[MancMike]

I could live with that. It's £12 less than I pay per month.

The most I've paid was £465.









A MONTH.

I think I need to lie down!

Are you in Moss Side there Mike?

OK, this isn't my premium, but a new quote for my daughter who has yet to pass her(practical) test and is buying some brand new Vauxhall for about £7k with an engine the size of a sewing machine. She is 25yrs old.


Hastings Direct will insure her, a provisional licence holder with her mother as a named driver for £458 fully comprehensive for the year!

I've seen the quote and can't believe its so cheap.

I don't know if 25 still counts as young, but I know teenager's premiums goes up dramatically when they pass their test and can drive on their own.

2007 w221 s320 £350 fully comp pay first £400.

 

[AMGeed]

This is the case. When she passes her test, the premium is expected to rise to £910pa. For a brand new car, albeit a 1lt Vauxhall, I think that's pretty good.

Very close, Hulme (at the time).

I don't know if 25 still counts as young, but I know teenager's premiums goes up dramatically when they pass their test and can drive on their own.

Looking at tiny cars for my 17 year old - £800 with named provisional driver, rising to £2k+ once she passes her test (Fiat 500/Fiesta/Up!). They only want £5k to insure her with a full licence on Mrs ShinyF1's Mini Cooper (again, adding her just as a learner not expensive)! Needless to say the new driver will be keeping her driving shoes to herself for the first year after she passes....

 

[garymj]

£712 for mine last year. Gone up to 1k with the same firm. So much for 40 years of no claims.

 

[andyjay123]

£800 for ml63 2013. AGED 46 WITH 7 YEARS nab

 

[renault12ts]

£400, 20 years ncb, we get screwed in Northern Ireland.

If I chose monthly it was about £12.

It's interesting seeing some of the mileage limits. An insurer told me that sometimes by asking for a low limit the premium can actually be more than going for 6000-7000, reasoning was that as you use the car less, you'll be less familiar with it and so more of a risk.

I had this experience a week ago at renewal, quote with AA for up to 8000 miles £440 and then thought that I could need more miles per year during the conversation with Agent asked how much for 9000 - that will be £60 less a year Sir.
