Well, I just got a very pleasent supprise.

At the moment I drive a 130 TDI - £770 insurance for the year .. Full no claims, protected over 30 etc.

The R32 is to cost £970 for the year!!! I cant believe it.

One more reason why I should get it!!

 

[LiQuOrIcE]

you old men get all the good quotes, im gonna do an online one just to see what mine is

 

[LiQuOrIcE]

lmao!!!!!

£5055.75!!!

in 2 months time it will be down to £2075.75 as all bar 3 points will be older than 5 years.

wont get one for a while then!!!

 

[Martyn]

I was really, really suprised, Let me know LiQuOrIcE. You have to remember living in Northern Ireland puts a huge loading on your insurance!!

 

[Martyn]

WOW - How old are you LiQuOrIcE???

I might go for this after all!!

 

[LiQuOrIcE]

22, 11points over the last 5 years, only 3 on license, 1 year no claims, parked on private land in locked garage, electronic imobiliser (assumed standard?).

That was online with elephant.

I may be wrong, but irish gti pays £2k on his 1.8t

 

[LiQuOrIcE]

the 2075.75 quote was after i advamnced my life a few months and left myself with 3 points in last 5 years.

 

[spanner]

Strewth - £1483 for me with Elephant on an R32 with 2 years NCB, 3 points in 1999, parked on driveway, 25 years old, no claims in past 5 years and Business Class 1. That's double what i'm paying for my 1.8T.

Not exactly close to £5055 though !!

[schnipps]

elephant are vastly overpriced, there are only a handfull of people who seem to be able to get good quotes with them . Try liverpool victoria

 

[spanner]

I've noticed that weirdness with Elephant.

For me they were great, however none of my mates have had any luck at all with them.

 

[LiQuOrIcE]

Ive noticed the inconsistancy aswell!!!
