Insuring a 2nd car
I'm looking to buy a 2nd car as a runabout for work. Rang the insurance co. who quoted silly numbers saying I would have to start from 0 years no claims if I wanted to insure another vehicle on my policy!
Anyone know of the best way around this so I don't end up paying stupid money to insure a Fiesta

got the same problem.........I want to get an Elise as a summer car and I am getitng well & truely screwed. The best way seems to be to use my no claims on the elise to get a £900 premium, then swap in my GTi for a 950cc mini and insure that with zero no-claims!!

Speak to a Broker (Swinton/AA), they will be able to find a policy that will reflect the percentage discount off your 1st policy. If you can put it in your partners name (spouse/common-law though) and you may see an even bigger discount.
