Insurance quote *shocked*

[Matt197]

Just had the renewal for my car come through and Bell who I am with now, wanted an extra £50 this year so I did a quick check on comparethemarket.com and was shocked when I got the figure back of £370 with Endsleigh for the year and no one else could even get close.

With Bell they quoted £550 for 10 months that’s a £180+ saving.

Pays to shop around and I never use comparison websites as a rule.

 

[Arran]

Always pays to shop around these days, especially with it being so easy to do.

 

[porsche_gregory]

Comparision sites FTW !!

 

[Mike]

You are lucky at 23 to get insurance that cheap!!!! I'm 30 this year, and I am going to be paying £450 lol.

But yes comparison sites are well worth it!!!!

 

[197-F1]

It even pays to look at companies not on the comparison ones too. Last time round aviva hammered the cheapest confused.com qoute I got.

 

[RalphyBMW]

Wow, wish mine was that cheap!

 

[karl88]

I wish mine was this cheap or even double it is cheap lol i pay £1200 at the moment

 

[foxy197]

i pay 550 im 24 with one years ncb with endsleigh shocking i was paying 1500 on fez St last year!

 

[liam92]

I pay $700 - 440 quid- for mine at age 18... with a previous car wrote off (not at fault though)

 

[Paul]

Thats a brilliant price. With the save that mine has been falling (1300, 860, 650) I would be quite happy if it continued but I cant see it. TBH I am happy paying 500-600 its not too bad at all really.

 

[Harpham]

Mine came down by almost £400 this year, due to upgrading to the 200.

Last year: £1170 on the 172, but I got a refund when I swapped to the 200.
This year: £800... Awwww yeaahhhh!!!

Feels good to rejoin the "Sub £1k Insurance Crew". I wont be leaving it again!!!

Im 21 years old btw. Im still going to shop around and look at the specialists, but im quite happy with that price considering.

 

[FinlayJ]

Just renewed my insurance, been with Direct line for 5 years and they wanted 750 quid to insure the Clio this time. Shopped around for a few weeks and managed to get it for 500 quid. Still think thats expensive though as im 28 with 7 years NCB

 

[SarGara]

Im guessing the OP lives in a good area postcode wise to get it so cheap! Thats just under half of mine and im 26 with full NCB :/

 

[GrumpyTwig]

I think I must have some hidden criminal record given how much mine cost.... (note i think our postcode is graded F for being especially dodgy, despite crime/car crime being generally none existant)

I'll just be happy if it's under a grand at renewal

 

[BenW]

That's amazingly cheap at 23 years old. Mine will be over double that when I renew (I'm 22) and I have a good postcode!

 

[blackpanther]

Think i need to move house to a better post code, mine doubled on the 200 this year to £1036
42 yrs old, no points, 14 yrs NCB
So its either the post code making it high or they have seen the way i drive.

 

[MikeH]

Cheapest quote I just got for renewal was £929, 34 years old with full no claims. The dreaded wa postcode.

 

[trailerparktrev]

Mine more than doubled. Previous premium was something like £350 fully comp on my R27 and when I bought the 200 i just updated the policy to the new car for something like 20 quid. When I got the renewal through last November RAC (brokers) wanted £860!!!!!!!

I live near Chichester (which is hardly crime central) and have never made a claim (touch wood) in 20 years of driving.

Went to Admiral and ended up paying £300. Shop it certainly does pay to shop around.

Yes im going to shop around a bit more next time, i did have a little shop around but they were all around the same price so i just kept the one i was with.

I pay circa £700 for mine at 23 (4NCB, 0 points/convictions) but I'm limited to who I can go with as most insurers wont insure the GF (20) on it until she's 21. Hopfully renewal this year will be much cheaper
