Car insurance

Just reinsured my daily driver BMW 5 Series estate and it cost me nearly £400.
Also whilst browsing pistonheads I found my ideal car. XJR 4l Supercharged £6500.
Typed details in to Confused.com for quote and it is only another £120 ontop of my Bmw insurance. BUGGER all i need do now is convince wife that i need a jag.
DOnt think it will work some how

I just got a quote for my son (19 and passed test) for our bog standard 1.1 Fiesta 1995 model.

The Cheapest is £2100. Crazy or what!

The car is only worth £300.

And he wants me to insure him in the Viento.... He has more chance of flying to Mars without a space rocket!







1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

And the government and police wonder why there are so many uninsured drivers on the roads.

Definitely.......if they sus you out when you have a bump they'll either ask you for the additional premium for the last few years or more likely accuse you of policy frontin (which is technically a criminal offence by the way) and then refuse to pay you out. There getting much stricter on it nowadays too, some even have specialist software to search out possibles.

Not a right lot I wouldn't have thought. I bet you'll pay more in the admin fee than the actual additional risk they are taking on.
