I got mine down by putting the misses on the insurance and as i cycle to work everyday the car doesnt do many miles nomore so lowered the milage

Mines going up 200 quid by looks of it even tho I have a years extra ncb

Whatever you do mate don't go with your renewal price. They will always take the p!ss and you'll get it cheaper, even from the same company as a new quote.

I have been with Elephant for the last 4 years now, was a named driver before so have 4 years of my own no claims.

Each year my renewal comes through and it's either the same or more than the previous year. I then go onto their website and do my own quote, it usually comes in at £50-100 less than the renewal price. I've now got my insurance for my Twingo down to £300 and the Megane is now £525. If I'd just gone with renewal prices it would have been a fair bit more.

Price comparison web sites are crap unfortunately although they give the impression they'll save you money.

The only time they'll save you anything is if you are comparing it to your renewal quote and even then it's minimal. I used Confused.com to quote me on the Gordini, cheapest quote was about £600, most expensive was £3k!!! :shock: Quote on Elephant.co.uk directly was about £300!

Only real way of getting it down is to contact the companies directly and play them off against each other to get the price down further.

Wow, i am looking forward to my renewal this year fun times, hopefully mine will go down. only thing i can suggest is going direct to the insurance companies i got half price compared with the comparison sites.

What's insurance like in Slovakia?

 

[TripleJay]

there is an obligatory insurance, needed to run car on streets legaly. The costs depend either on engine size or engine power. For Twingo RS, it would not be more than 150,- € a year. Facultative insurance covering costs of repair of my car if I have an accident /in case of theft/nature dissasters etc. is from 250,- to 400,- € a year.

I drive a Freeway...

Just turned 19 and I have been quoted 700 fully comp. with 2yrs no claims.

But i have just done a quote on a RS and it quoted me 900, i kinda wish i went for the sport now :/

 

[Karl]

Do i here a trade in

 

[HigtonA]

I have been thinking about it to be honest, i might pop down to my dealer to see what they can do for me

 

[Karl]

If you dont ask you will never know. Thats what i dont with my GT and look where i am now

 

[jamesy1990]

mines is almost up but wen i took it out i was 20 with 1 year no claims bonus i was £1800 :O

I just totally disregarded my own advice and went along with my renewal for the Megane!! lol

Usually I've been able to go online and get the price down further, then just renewed at that price. This year I couldn't get it down any further than the renewal which was £525, which I didn't think was bad.

Problem is the premium rate has gone up meaning so have the prices
