4bes   10 #13 Posted September 12, 2005 I have tried Churchill's but they don't do it. It will be a miracle if I do find a competitive insurer that does! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

absynthfairy   10 #16 Posted September 12, 2005 I use confused.com - it's really good.  However I have been with AA since I was 22 and found it to be very competitve - turned 26 this year and my policy halved! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Ginger_Kitty   10 #17 Posted September 12, 2005 I got my first car and therefore first insurance when i was 24, assuming that it would cover me 3rd party on other cars, good job i read the paperwork and fineprint as it said somewhere that i was only covered third party on other cars if i was over 25, fortunately I turned 25 4 weeks later so it didn't bother me too much!  So it does happen, it does exist  (I'm insured through Diamond- £200 cheaper than all the others - but only cos i'm female;) ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
*Twinkle*   10 #18 Posted September 12, 2005 I'm with Direct Line, fully comp. I'm 18 and drive a brand new car so my policy is sky high at £1,455  Daddy, tells me he thinks I'm that competant a driver, that he'll let me drive his pride and joy... Untill I brought him up to speed, by showing him my policy...  Daddy's part of the school of thought, whereby comprehensive insurance+owners permission = you can drive someone elses car... However this is no longer the case... Until I'm 25, I believe... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

*Twinkle*   10 #20 Posted September 13, 2005 05 Suzuki Alto, absynthfairy Low insurance group aswell... However there's alot of factors working against me... IE: My age, the vehicle's age, the fact that I've only had a license since Nov, the fact that I've only had a car since Jan... Mind you, its not that bad considering that to insure my old N reg Rover 100, it was £950 on Third party Fire and Theft!!!  Ya gotta start somewhere I suppose...

Still costs me £800 a year and I'm over 25!!!! Again, its my first car, my first insurance, and I live in Parson Cross (grrr) my age and length of driving are the only things in my favour!!! If i use my b/f's address details in the online quote things the price more than halfs!!! I need to move house!!!! Em Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

My old car cost £600, yet I still had to pay £950 to insure it... Fully comp would have been £1,100 with Direct line... NU wanted just short of £2k! They take the mickey!
