Massive Car insurance costs?

Not too bad for us. 266 for the year

About 10 quid different to last year.

My renewal has gone from 460 odd to 972

Done a quick quote and their all around 460 odd

My 2024 m4 cost me £1100, which is still cheaper than the old £5k van I used for fishing (almost £1200)

Weirdly though, all of my NCD (5 years) is on my truck and I found out I couldn’t transfer the NCB from a truck to a car.

Then I discovered with quotes, that the difference between 0 and 5 years NCD was £15 cheaper a year…..

I used to think NCD meant quite a lot, but for me (42 year old, 21 year old license with 100% clean history) it doesn’t seem to mean anything…

I guess NCD only really helps for much younger/newer drivers?

Just got in touch with my old insurer today as needed to check it is not going to auto renew, they've offered an even cheaper quote than First Alt from earlier, now £320 so I am staying with them lol.

I wonder if the bad press, over the last few years, has cast insurers in an unfavourable light?

Now they can't use covid as an excuse.

No one's ever liked insurers have they? :cry:

Now they just use the "everything's gone up" excuse.
