VR6 0 Posted February 9, 2006 You've just paid nearly £3k to insure it??? :shock: Or is that the cost of the car? Might sound daft, but phone your insurance company! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cvw 0 Posted February 9, 2006 sat on my backside for too long only got my finger out two months before i turned 25 then waited till my birthday before purchasing the corrado as i thought it might make a difference to the insurance costs. obviously not as much as i expected.

cvw 0 Posted February 9, 2006 cheapest quote so far 1833.89 so i would be saving nearly a grand. but this is the best bit.............. accidental damage excess 700.00. i think they think i am made of money , obviously the insurance people dont own corrados. gonna keep searchin.

Walesy 0 Posted February 9, 2006 Also might be worth trying Tesco ...as much as I hate them, they're sometimes cheapest. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G 0 Posted February 9, 2006 I've got a 1.8 16v. I reccomend Adrian Flux or HIC. I pay £450 TPFT (I'm 24 with 6 years no claims) and live in a crappy ish area in North London Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr.ots 10 Posted February 9, 2006 One thing I would suggest you younger guys try is to put an older female on your policy as a named driver (your mother for example), this will almost always bring your premium down and sometimes by a surprising amount. In fact it works for us older guys too :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
veeDuB_Rado 0 Posted February 9, 2006 My mum doesn't have a license, not sure if that's a good or bad thing :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.ots 10 Posted February 9, 2006 Any older relative (over 30 is a bonus) will do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chubbybrown 0 Posted February 9, 2006 Your probably better off with a trade policy for that kind of money thats shocking.... I think we pay £180 F.C Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
