A plan insurance renewal

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

My Ranger came in at roughly £160 cheaper with A Plan this year than the previous year, for identical cover. They've switched me to a different actual insurer. I should add, I did ring round a couple of places last year at renewal time, and while A Plan weren't absolutely the cheapest, there was less than £20 in it, so I stayed with them.

Car Insurance generally starts going up when you are in your late 70's so need to panic yet.     My mums car insurance has rocketed to over £550 last renewal and she's 87, still driving confidently as well.

Possibly a major proportion of The Cheese's premium increase is admin cost for a mid-year alteration and more valuable car. Also IPT (insurance premium tax which Chancellors seem addicted to increasing on a regular basis) went up from 10% to 12% on 01 June 2017.

Re SootySport's observation about car insurance premium increases for septuagenarians should we then add a younger person as a named driver? Lol. Wouldn't encourage fraud.

I was had lease cars before where the insurance was included as such it was a fresh when i bought last year. 

I was with admiral who put it up from 840 to 1210. Stupid thing is that i went on a conpatison site and admiral came out at 973. So called big insurance companies doing whatever they want

What annual mileage did you go for? @Stuart

Hi all

I've got 2 westfields insured with a plan and my premiums seem much higher than any I've seen here. I'm paying £197 and £230 for fully comp, all year round. How does that compare to what you are getting covered?

Ignore the prices other people quote, insurance is such a variable thing they just don't compare well.

I pay circa £190 for the S2000, but then it's stored on the drive and I have pretty much the largest milage you can select, before going on to a different type of policy.

total premium can vary a lot depending on mileage and also if you have breakdown cover that can add approx £40ish.
