Introduction..... & - Isurance!!

[aj2day]

Hello there!

I realised i havent/didnt really introduce myself to this forum, so, i am now!.. Im Ali form Carlisle, just got a 9n3 06 plate GTi in black a few week back. It was J from more bhp who introudced me to this site, So hello guys and girls!!..

I wanted to talk about insurance, not sure if this has been covered, but was gonna ask you guys what kind of premium your paying for you polo's???

Im 28 yrs old, full no claims, no convictions, full comprehensive insurance with nfu is costing me £575 a year with a £500 excess. (i am insured for business use also)

Would like to see what your paying for your gti's really to make a comparison..

Cheers, Ali.

24
no claims made
no convictions
0 no claims bonus
good post code

£380 fully comp with £300 excess IIRC on my GTI including business and commuting cover

saved £60 putting my mum on as a named driver

Ali,

Sounds like alot to me....

Try Direct Line online quote.... you can still use for business... it is all included iirc...

If you have another car in the family.. why dont you get a Traders policy... you should qualify given your business/occupation...

This could save you some money... If I didnt need to drive modified cars then some policies were starting at just over £500.... So you get 2 or 3 cars insured for the same money as one .. if you get me... and the business pays for it all...

My premium is just over a grand ... but that is for the Polo GTI and A4 cab.... whatever mods I want.... and also to drive any customers cars fully comp, modified or not, upto £35k value.. Wife is also covered to drive any of ours or customers cars... and is also insured to commute to her place of work.

Worth a thought ??

I am 40 soon and pay 200 for a modified tdi all gti spec running gear totally nonstd and full gti interior and it went down when I told them about the modifications , something to do with me becoming an old fart apparently.

[Rich_T]

[_williams_]

mines £800
fully comp,
im 22,
3 years no claims,
3 points from 2005

hopefully when renewal time comes around in august it'll come down a fair bit!

[alexperkins]

Greenlight is said to be the company for those over 24 with a good deal of no claims!

[aj2day]

Well there seems to be a mixture of prices being paid... I have tried all the price comparison sites (comparing meerkats lol), i can get it down another 100 quid, but dunno if its worth all the hassle of changing when the insurance office for nfu is about half a mile away from me. (-compare the market came back as the best comparison site)
