Question

So who is paying the lowest premium for a Scooby? I paid £725 this year & I was dead happy! (29yr old, on drive, LU postcode, tracker, MY00, no mods)

Sorry Mate £721, me 28. ex girlfriend 30, mind you, her as main driver and her 7 yrs NCD. That's with Frizzell
Now that she's gone....it's renewal time.Bad timing....
I'm looking at £920 with only three years NCD, also with frizzell
So I guess you had the last laugh
Any hot chicks want to occupy a passenger seat (Like there's going to be hot chicks in a car insurance forum)
nym
go on then girls prove me wrong

Quoted £694 with Tesco for MY01 - which is two groups higher than an MY00. Frizzell, AXA, Eagle Star won't quote on MY01 as above their grp 18 limit.

Age 30 full NCB protected one SP50

That's very good. I am paying 480 for a bog standard 94M UK Turbo with similar profile to yourself. Just fitted Scooby Sport BB anD 16" Gold Subaru Alloys and my company (Churchill) won't insure performance mods.

Full Comp or TPFT, you need to specify as £398 full comp would be a bargain.

This was in New Zealand. hehehe

£107 for full cover on a Type RA with rediculous mods (all declared). Parked on the street. I was 26 and my wife was under 25. I had almost 11 years no claims (you can drive at 15 in NZ) I win

I had £127 on a 911s when I was 21.

Also worth bearing in mind that this was full cover and insurance (even third party) is not compulsary in NZ.]

Now I am in london I am getting quotes of around £600-£900 for an RA (oh and one for £7800 - don't think they wanted to insure me but did not want to be rude enough to tell me that).

Cheapest ive seen a basic tracker for is around the £500 mark if u decide to pay a one-off lifetime sub fee. Otherwise u have to pay a sub fee monthly/annually. The kit itself is about £250 for the base model. The one where u have to tell the police your motor has been nicked, instead of them being automatically noticed. As for installation, its an independent thing, depending on who u decide to buy from. I guess dealers have contacts to do the work to. But then u pay top dollar for the install to.

Just renewed.

Frizzell came in with last renewal at £693 up form £594 last year. Have just paid with them £520 hurrah!

Based on me 32, wife 29, 5 yrs NCB, class 1 biz use, no mods (though only £30 extra for PPP), protected, parked in car park overnight, good postcode, had to up the damage excess to £400 but then I'm not going to put in a calim for less than a £1000 anyways as its not worth the while.

V.V.V. pleased about this....
