Where have you guys found the best place to get insurance for your cars?
Normal insurance companies, or is there a Vauxhall Insurance?
Thanks

Same as tunnie, I'm 23 with 4 years NCB, it's about £400 for me on the V6.

The Omega can be a bit expensive insure because its a group 17 car :o but im with Directline as well.

Thought the Elite 3.0 was group 15?
What model are you referring to?
-
To be honest I don't think its that expensive for the car, oh MV6 :y, I just wanted to see if you guys (the people in the know) thought it was expensive.
Me and Mrs Loo-knee ;D pay £200 ish for both of us Fully Comp with breakdown cover for Her Rangey.... I know its a far older car and not as fast (but better in the snow apparently ;D).. ;D
-
I pay about £270 ish FC on the MV6. Admiral.
-
i always found direct line very cheap, best quotes around for me.
confused.com is sh!t, really is. Takes 10 years to enter all the data they want and comes back with stupid quotes which are as reliable as a plumbers estimate!
-
Well .. i am fully comp with 8yrs no claims protected ( because tina was once on my policy lol :y) and i pay 300 ish BUT have had a quote for 220 fully comp cause i in a union think its the TGWU ????
It was thru london victoria if that helps

Plumbers Estimate I that ;D
May spend a few hours in the yellow pages tomorrow then on car insurance, Direct Line Admiral etc...
Also need to hire a car trailer so have a look in yellow pages for that too :y

First year I had the MV6, Direct Line wanted over £600. I politely suggested what they could do with that quote....

I used to insure through Frizzell (now Liverpool Victoria) and got discount through CSMA, but they refused to insure a 21yr old on a 2.0 GTE... ::)
-
I obtained my Pass Plus, it made a huge reduction to my insurance..
-
I'm 27, 4 yrs no claims. £600 and a bit Fully Comp with churchill on 2.6 V6. :'( Beggining to think that annoying little mut is screwing me. >:( I'll give the little mut "OH Yes" if I get my hands on him ;D ;D
Most insurance companies rob you blind these days...... If you find one that doesn't give me there number!!!
-
I'm with EGG, £325 fully comp :y
-

I got a pass plus too, told them I had it when insurance the senny. Was basically told its worth break all now! :'(
Although i did try and chat the bird at direct line up, turns out she was in her 2nd year at Manchester Uni!
-
I found Tesco to be cheapest (around £320 FC) until I made a claim (not my fault but still pending) & my premium shot up. With Equity Red Star now (through a specialist broker). They took me on at the same premium even with a claim pending & 3pts & will refund the difference if I win.
-
I think the younger you are the more they shaft you!!! My old man's just about fosilised and he pay's the same as me. Difference is I only insure the omega and he insures 3 cars for the same amount!!! Granted 2 of them are yank tanks and the others a renault, but hey..... No body's perfect!!!
So by the time you can afford to insure your motor without putting yourself into poverty, You'll either be too old and knackered to enjoy it or dead. Though I'd share my sinical point of view :D
Do I sound like an old nag??? :-/ :-/
-
True, but sad fact remains that you have less expensive accidents as you get more and more experience...
-
In theory!!! Old man ran his last laguna straight into the back of someone... Total rightoff!!!
Quite amusing now after the old, no substitue for experience son, speach about driving!! Like some more ketchup for that humble pie dad?? ;D ;D
It just frustrates me when you see these 80 year old snail drivers on the road who can't see past the bonnet, near miss everything in sight and cause 20 mile tailbacks because the marbles have gone and they can't remeber which pedal is the accelerator!!! And oh, guess what... you spend more on a sandwich than they do for a years insurance. >:( >:(
-
I'm afraid old age comes to us all :'(
-
Very true. And I hope I'll grow old gracefuly..... Still commiting minor infractions in a large RWD motor. ;D ;D

My mistake, according to Parkers and Glass's guides the 3.0MV6 is group 16 its the 3.2 thats group 17 :-[
-
Admiral for me, 3 years ncb and i pay around £400 for the MV6
-
I'm 36 , 8 years NCB and paid £330 FC with Norwich Union on my 2.5 cdx. When i was changing the car, i ran a few quotes through confused.com, and having a 3.0 was only a few quid more expensive.
Just don't get the Irish lads on this thread - their insurance is in 4 figures always :(
-
i got a good deal on quinn direct insurance practically the same amount as my old mondeo estate 1.8td
-
Admiral for me, 3 years ncb and i pay around £400 for the MV6
mind you i've got a renewal quote with more than for £340 !!! so reckon i am going there next month :y
-
I'm 23 with 7 years NCB and 3 points for speeding.
I've just got some quotes for renewal (hard to tell with current policy as I changed cars in the middle of it) and Quinn Direct come up as the cheapest at £390 TPFT with protected NCB.
-
1 year no claims down to 600 odd now!
-
best quote i have had after ages searchin on the net is £253.40 TPFT protected NCD and Legal Cover with Budget :y
-
I wish i could get mine below 4 figures :'(
I paid last year £1400 FC for the omega..... they did want £1800 initially but dropped it to £1400 when i suggested i would take all 4 cars somewhere else. Apparently the guy doing the quote changed the group on the computer to a vectra and it came up with £1400.
£1400 for the VectraB FC
£1400 for the VectraC FC
£1500 for the Merc FC
Insurance comps dont like taxi drivers :'(
However i do get good service i think....another insurance comp is taking mine to court at the moment for running up a over £7k hire charge on another car that was rented for me while the merc was off the the road due to a non fault accident.
-
Mine was about £285 fully comp, protected no claims, full NCB, on 3.0L elite, not too bad.
-
Just had a Brilliant quote Guys, try Privilege if your insurance is due I have been quoted £281.40 fully Comp ME + Mrs on an MV6 :y
-
I was paying £1000 for me (2 and a half years driving) with 1yrs NCB fully comp, and my girlfriend (3 months driving) as a named driver, which isnt bad for a 20 year old living in liverpool :y
