just had my renewel through and they(performance direct)have upped from 260 to 422, what the feck have i done wrong? im running an 8v digi with some mods(declared) and 3k agreed value, im 34 been driving for 5 years without a claim and this is supposed to be classic ins, tomorrow im going to ring them up and call them names in a childish manor! can anyone recommend any companies that dont want to repair their recession with my wallet.
6 years with Brentacre myself. No issues, always been very helpful. Sometimes not the lowest quote out there, but not far off, and the excellent service more than makes up for it. Had a full-loss claim four years ago, and the premium hardly moved.
i tried here http://quotezone.co.uk/modified/sl.htm and they beat my current price that was with hastings direct
add a grand onto your quote and your something near to what iam paying, fully comp as a NAMED driver!!! lol
thanks everyone, copeidge, take it your a bit younger than me, if so thats not too bad my bosses son is paying 2100 for a poxy fiesta 1.1 worth 500, he is 21 driving 2years.
Danny - Brentacre paid me for being on there books for the shear kudos of having my name on there. Seriously though I have been with them a year now, just TPFT and I think its about 216. I pay monthly so there is a percentage for that in with that price as well. Seemed very nice, understanding, knowledgable guys. See you at the next meet.
you obviously have no idea about insurance for an 18 yr old on a gti.... i couldnt give a shi5 what iam "technically" doing tbfh, its the only way insurance was possible !
whattt!! 2100 for a 1.1 fiesta and hes 21 with 2 years wtf!!! lol i could just about get my own policy on the golf for that if i did a bit of charming! lol
Er......thats an over ambitious car for your age....i only had a 69bhp 1.3 at your age, i had to do that so i didn't break the law as you are
Ins co's often try it on at renewal, cause lots of silly people just pay it. Shop around then phone them and i bet they reduce it. However, i do have to say HIC are superb.
I used to work in car insurance actually. It's illegal and it's also the reason that premiums are that high on such cars. I managed to get cheap enough quotes on GTis when I was 17/18 because I just happened to know tricks of the trade and so forth, in the end I just kept the 1.6 that my dad gave me because it was a good bit cheaper. Trust me, insurance is always possible, you gotta pay to play.
the reason premiums are so high is becuase of the little bastar*s that right off 3/4 cars! and mummy and daddy just pay for there next one! go on then please feel free to spill the tricks of the trade so you can help your fellow club members out to get cheaper insurance!
an over ambitious car!! what are you really talking about! just becuase of my age your making assumtions of me! christ its annoying! seriously mate just drop it before i loose the plot completely!
come on guys back off cope he is lucky to be driving a gti i had a 1.8 driver when i was 19 as a named driver and cope is not a boy racer and it is not over ambitious of him so lets just drop it
