So i've noticed quite a few of you have managed to get sub £500 insurance with some of the insurers named on the big FAQ list.
The broad question is....how?
To give you some context :
1) Me as a primary driver with 4 years NCB (4 years driving), clean record, 33 years old, fully employed etc = £600 + (only mod to car *ahem* is Alloys)
(fair enough you might say, it's the small NCB that's doing it)
HOWEVER
2) My better half as primary driver with _15_ years NCB, clean record, 36 years, fully employed etc = £500 + (only mod to car *ahem* is Alloys)
We thought perhaps it was the location (Birmingham) being known as a hotbed of riots and terror second only to Afghanistan and Coventry...so we speculatively changed the home address to my mums place....in rural North Wales - population : Sheep.
Same result.
So the more specific question is :
a) is there something missing/wrong in what we're doing?
b) is it simply the time of the year/season/whatever and _all_ quotes are unseasonably high?
c) Does anyone _really_ expect a Shatner cameo in the next Star Trek?
--- Further context ----
It's a gen 3, 1996, 3.0 diesel, daft alloys, Hilux Surf
Looking for Fully Comp, £500 excess etc.
We've tried Adrian Flux, Moneysupermarket, Compare the badger and A-Plan.
