My dad is looking at a 911 c4 conv 2002, he is looking at insurance at the moment, we have tried confused and the cheapest we have found is 1k.

Thanks.

dont use confused, or if u do just go onto the actual sites it lists and do a quite, will work out cheaper

try admiral they seem to be a very good insurer atm

Tried Admiral they were 1.5k

Tesco are the leaders so far :eek:

WTF, this is for your Dad?

£1000 for a 911? I take it he has full no claims?

Yeah he has 12yrs ncd.

Found it for £840 with swiftcover, added another £140 for protected ncd. :rolleyes:

Edit sainsburys £820 and add £93 for protected ncd. :rolleyes:

Ok u will, ring the ones i said above especially Greenlight on Tuesday, You tell them what was offered i bet they will beat it

Quick q, if he didnt protect his no claims therefore saving himself £100-150, if he then crashed would he lose all his ncd or just two years?

Have you tried porsche insurance ?

Thats who my dads 911 C4 is with.

No, my dad currently had a bmw, we tried a quote with bmw for insurance and it was one of the highest.

Will try it though.

It might vary between insurers, but for Admiral:

[/CODE]

So if he has like 12+ years ncd it is not worth protecting his ncd.

Where is fox when you need him.

It might be that they stop counting extra years NCB after 5 years, not sure

It does look like you loose 2 years NCB for making a claim though

The best idea would be to phone the insurers and ask

He is with first alternative at the moment, we did an online quote and they said ring for a quote = expensive. He will ring and see how much it is to change his car for the remainig 2 1/2 months.

Hopefully in 2 1/2 months he wont be in Gtr Manchester for long and so may only have to pay rip off insurance for a couple more months.

The car in question.

Haha wont phone flux then, he seems happy with £800, but i am still wondering how mucj ncd you lose for a crash, to see if it worth protecting.

Most companies consider 'Max' no claims to be either 5 or 9 years depending on the company.

So even if he has 40 years NCB he'll be treated as if he has max - ie, 9 years..

Ok but if he crashes how much ncd can he lose?
