"Quote Me Happy...."

So all I have to do to get insured is to call Norwich Union Direct and say "yeah, it's a hatch-back" ? That will save me a few quid not having to declare the rest. lol.

So have I. Odd kind of ad that.

Like the E-sure Micheal winner add "I'm with E-sure".

When on Points of view they had to say, "Actually he isn't, we don't insure media and performance types".

Wow! That is truely amazing - btw what were you thinking of doing with a Saab 9000 at 17?

The highest quote I have seen has been £11k for a 19 year old on a group 9 car (!). (A more reasonable £2k was found by shopping around).

So lets start a new thread - whats the highest insurance quote people have ever been given?

It's a Carlson.

Its quicker than a quick thing on quick pills, and looks so damn respectable.

Only think quicker at the time in the Saab stable was the Viggen, and thats a jet fighter :)

No, it's a Carlsson :)

7.5 seconds to 60 is mediocre these days tho :/

Nephew's mate was 'quote me happy' £1900 for a 1.2 Nova, he was not happy. Liverpoop Vic £1200. Directline £900.

Hastings Direct did me a deal full comp, self only, PNCD that matched DL's basic premium, supposedly saving the £70 DL wanted for PNCD. When it arrived they had left off the protected no claims. Rang them up and protected no claims would have near doubled the premium - over £300 more than DL, some shit about Japanese car. I told them what they could do with the policy and I'm still with DL

NU said they didn't cover mods - a boost gauge! So if you have a Halfords 'Economy gauge' that shows manifold vacuum in green, yellow and red bands and have not declared it to NU your insurance is void! Did any cars in the ads have aftermarket alloy wheels?

Reminds me of Only Fools and Horses where there are big riots going on, and Del drives up in the Capri Ghia, beeps the horn which does a sort of broken chord in the second inversion (sorry to anyone who didn't understand that), and the rioting crowds part, everything goes silent, and he drives through!

Ah ha, I realise all that. But £1300. The quote I accepted was £425, a third of the cost, with very similiar cover, not including the silly stuff I couldn't use anyway.

Both quotes were from big name insurers.

Why ? You're insuring the OTHER cars that you may hit - not your own ! If you write-off a 20K BMW, then you've *EASILY* got your moneys worth.
