Has anybody seen a drastic increase in their insurance renewals this year? No matter who I get a quote from, its gone up on average £100 compared to last years premium. No changes to the policy and another years NCD to boot.
Yes I have. The fleecing bastards. And vehicle tax. Taxed my van yesterday. £320. I’m certain it wasn’t that much last year..
Mines gone up, my lads however has gone down from £400 on his moped to £275. Although he doesn’t care as such as he doesn’t pay it……. My van insurance went up buy about £300 per annum but my motorcycle insurance came down about £50.
Same here increase by £100. Looked at going third-party fire and theft and there was virtually just a few pounds drop.
My bike insurance went down this year. I need to insure the car next month, so am expecting a trouser down situation.
Renewal quote today £30 more than last years cost, quick look on comparison sites and can find it almost £100 cheaper than the renewal price. I like the company I’m with but £100 dearer than others is a bit much will give em a call tomorrow see if anything can be done.
My bike insurance renewal quote from my existing company has gone up £110 from last year, so they have been told to do one! I tried Ducati insurance, they quoted over a £1100, my last premium was £359, FC, when I ask them why such a ridiculous price, they said it was because the increase on bike thefts in the area, when I asked them when was the last reported bike theft in County Down, Northern Ireland, after a long pause, they replied with, oh we don't have that information available, what a joke, they were told to do one as well! Now still looking, FFS.
Guess there is far more to insurance than I care about regarding risk of cover etc but this made me curious, quote from Ducati Insurance, £206 fully comp £1070 TPFT £151 TPO Clearly doesn’t want TPFT not that I was after that BTW
Mine too. I'm with Ducati insurance which were a bit dearer than other quotes but I've stayed with them as when I've used them they've been absolutely fantastic dealing with claims. Sometimes it pays to have a company that you know will look after you when you've needed them to.
Just checking and: both bikes were matched pound for pound by Ducati insurance (Flux) Car wise - wives work car went up by 20quid, my doggy wagon banger went down by 40quid Van - up by 50quid So no where near as steep as allot of you it seems, but we live in a village full of older folk and in the arse end of nowhere so possibly down to area/postcode?
Getting myself a new V4 Rally, and looking online for insurance. On my old bike, I pay about £155 a year. Now on this strada they was £700+ a year. I feel like I'm getting shafted. Is it just because of the high bike cost in general?
Any new bike over 20k seems very expensive, I dropped the value on mine the second year to £19995 and the premium dropped by about 60 %
