Car Insurance - New Development

[_James_]

I am absolutely disgusted at the price of my insurance this year tbh. £795 on a 05 320d, I'm 31 and quite frankly just dont understand it.

Quick moan on the web then spread it over the year with DD, it's a requirement so what are you to do eh.

Mine when up a hell of alot for the Volvo at the tail end of last year, I was disgusted as i hadn't paid that sort of cash for insurance since my early 20's. Luckily got an OKish-to-stomach multicar deal from Admiral, then I moved to Larne at the near vomited at my premium increase.

Ouch, the renewal on my Accord went up to over £600 this year and that was the day before I turned 42, no claims or convictions. That was with Axa, needless to say I told them what to do with their renewal. Shopped around and got it for £230 online with SureThing, added legal, windscreen and breakdown for an extra £20. They quoted me £900 for the Z4 - I laughed at them, on classic now with Autoline for £250

My insurance went up when I called to say I'd moved from Larne to Bangor, still can't get over that

That’s because when you live in bangorrrrr u r supposed to have plenty of money.

£650 insurance (Down from 775 last year) and £315 tax... for a clio. Breaks my heart.

Oddly I got £50 *back* when I changed from the 570S Spider to the 600LT.

Bt16 is definitely more expensive, mine dropped about £100 when I moved back to comber (bt23)

I'm actually glad this thread came up, was near heartbroken myself looking at quotes - almost thought I was in my early 20s again!

I’ve watched the Jaag insurance climb when it turned 4, then again when the new XF came out in 2016. And again last year when it turned 7.

I think older cars suffer due to the perceived rise in repair costs as certain parts become harder to come by.

I certainly don’t think it’s anything to do with my proximity to Carrowdore or the Bangorians moving in....
