Title: insurance
Post by: Andy B on 24 September 2024, 20:07:01
car insurance is up next month and renewals arrived the other day. Surprisingly they're literally only a few quid different from last year but what I do find odd is that the 2 cars that cover the least mileage a year are the 2 policies that have gone up. While the Smart I go to work in (6/7000 miles per yr) & the ML that is used to tow with (5/6000 miles per yr) have gone down a few quid each  :-\

Must be the day for it. My renewal popped up today. £50 less than last year. £300. Confused was dearer still. Adding both kids on took it to £4500 so I decided not to do that!

All three of my cars cost well under £200 pa to insure. First year I had the Boxster it was under £100 with cashback.
I would still rather be young and paying through the nose though.  ;D
In 1979 the Chevette HS cost me £635 tpf&t to insure. Worth every penny.  ::) ;D

If I were to buy another desirable Vauxhall it would be a Lotus Carlton.

Not so very long a ago a good one could be had for £20,000. Those days are long gone now though. :-[
