  • Insurance gone up :-(

    Postby Pugguy » Tue Jul 29, 2008 1:51 pm

    Well I got my renewal & its gone up by £20 a month!! :cry:

    Nothing has changed, no claims etc.. They say its just their rates.
    I haggled but all they could offer was a £40 tesco voucher.

    Better than nout, but time to shop around I think.

    Maybe it's because i'm a Douglaser

    Thats what I thought.. I already thought I was paying a tad too much at £830.. Now its over £1000! LOL

    Ive never made a claim & have no points- Am I being ripped off?

    I will give adrian flux a try- I tried them last year & they couldnt beat my tesco quote, but maybe they can now....

    Hi DD, I'd have said £500 a month for the Clio was bleedin expensive :shock:

    Ha ha, I wouldn't want to be an employer negotiating your salary with you!!

    I couldn't believe the jump up between the R32 and the M3 ( an extra £28 a month at just under £1,000 a year), plus the M3 is a year older! I moaned to my insurer and they said I'd had a bargain with the Golf because they hadn't remembered to class it as a 'hot hatch', so I'm getting stung now. Gits!

    Oh and if Jonathan is old well then, what does that make me?..........................................experienced 8)
    I'm aiming to be a legend, and I will be!

    The scoob for me was about £150 a year TPFT (as the book value is next to nothing so no point getting comp), but then I am a reet ald bastad at 33! :lol:

    I just got my renewal from Tower for the KTM too - £101.60 for the year. Treats! :D

    Not sure who I'll use for the scoob when it goes back on the road as Tower were funny about it for some reason as the wife is covered on the Disco too.

    I'll be modding it more so I might try somewhere like Adrian Flux. I just want somewhere that will cover all the mods at a cheap price without making me jump through hoops to prove what's been fitted etc.
    If you don't like my comments, don't cause me to write them. How simple is that! :)

    I have to agree with this, I can't recommend them enough, they're very mod friendly and give great service.
