Insurance for codger?

Try SAGA

If you haven't owned a car because you have been using company cars some insurers will give you the discount if you produce a letter from your fleet people outlining your claim history.

Tesco gave my wife the benefit of 5 years NCD.

They saved me £80 on a Granada 2.9 V6 4x4 (FAST !!!) 270.00 fully comp £100 excess + usual hire car, recovery option etc.

My GF saved £70 on her 2.0l Carlton auto !

With the cost of ownership nowadays, I doubt many would think you're a divvie.

A 2.0 Carlton - not a girls car by any means, but I like a woman who drives a big meaty motor!

Does that still count if I've bought a 1993 Rover 416 Auto? :)

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "Arthur" saying something like:

Old gits like us are the very people the robbing bastard insurance companies are falling over themselves to get hold of. They think we're less of a risk (hah!). Suddenly, I find myself paying a reasonable, affordable premium instead of being held over a barrel and rogered senseless every year.

The lack of NCB will not be a huge problem compared to a younger driver, iwt.

Saying that, I have a quote of £455 for my newly acquired S70 T5. IMHO, that's quite reasonable for a 26 year old, given the combination of driver age and car performance.

That's not bad at all; not a civil servant or something similar, are you?

No. My secrets are estimated mileage of less than 5000 (which is perfectly true) and a girlfriend/co-habitant of over 30 on the policy. The insurer also recognises the fact that I have an IAM certificate, but I've no idea if that makes any difference or not.
