Happy Face 29 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Kid at work saying he's too young to worry about a house and is only looking at upgrading his motor. You cannit tell kids that being a homeowner halves the insurance though, they just want to be driving up the coast with Basement Jaxx coming out the open windows of their Micra.

strawb 4270 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 The claim was last year but my no claims are protected so I get that I pay a bit extra for that but it still seems high? I had two years driving a company car in the middle of that so didn't have to have my own insurance, reckon it's that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 4270 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 [emoji38]It'll be that fucking dog that's affecting your premium, strawb. Fuckers own insurance is about 48 quid a month anarl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strawb 4270 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Live in a leafy suburb of Manchester. When I lived in a shithole near Pontefract I drove a golf GTI that was remapped and lowered etc. The insurance was about 800. Might ring round and speak to some companies and see if I can figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5226 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I passed two years ago - no claims but mine is less than £700. You do shop around when you renew, right Strawb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck, if remote working isn't a possibility then obviously it'll be harder to get a job in Manchester than London but still the easiest place outside the south east.
