pissed off with insurance


Recommended Posts

so im trying to get my eunos back on the road, to either fall back in love with it (its a minter) or sell it for something else.



and insurance is a bloody nightmare. no decent prices, and spent what felt like forever repeating my details to various companies.



then adrian flux. phoned up got a great quote of £294 for my 1.6 eunos with mods. very pleased with that. i ask if the price will be fixed,



they say it will but changed daily so if i ring back tomorrow it will probably change. so i have a think about it, book car for its MOT,



phone back 20 minutes later and its gone up by 40 quid. pissed off lol.



have to put the car back on the road either way whether i sell or not but didnt wanna pay over the odds for insurance.



not impressed with sky at all, quoted me nearly 500quid when im 29 with 9 years ncb and clean license on a stock engined 1.6 eunos.



and wont move, despite the fact that their renewal letter boasts about if you find a cheaper like for like quote (ive got several) they will match it + £20 on top. bullshit.

+1 for greenlight, were really cheap with there 1st quote and never threatened to put the price up if i rung around.

Flux are f**kers like that, offer you a good price if you take it then and there but whack a premium on if you ring around and go back.

Hearing your insurance problems is like listening to a child screaming over getting the wrong sweets. Still sweet lol.

Try insuring in ireland. Anything over 15 years old. Not a hope. Jap? Not a hope. Classic Jap? Not a hope.

If you do manage to get a quote it's usually from a UK company. Even then your talking 1000 minimum and I've seen quotes of 15k up to 50k.

Tax on your mx5 here would be 650 a year too.
