--
25 years old
6 year no claims
6 year licence held
no points
no accidents or claims
Standard UK DBM00 except SS Back Box
Parked on private driveway
Last years best price £1400
Quotes so far
Priliage renewal (previous insurers) £1240
Barclays - £1499 with £100 excess
Tesco - £1093-05 - wanted tracker installed
Churchill - Must be over 30 with a Scooby!
AA - £1567.05
Direct Line - £1067 to £1131 depending on extra voluntary excess (ie. £0 to £150)
Depressing to say the least. So much for being 25 and seeing a noticable drop in insurance. Has anyone got any other company names that I can call.
Regards,
Jules

I quizzed him about insurance prices and he told me about the floods and lots of personal injury claims pushing up the prices since last year![](http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif)

Jules,
I bought my MY99 UK Turbo in March and got insured with A Flux for 730 quid with 350 excess. Thats with clear indicators, magnex backbox and fully colour coded.
I'm 25, 5 yr no claims, no convic/points, 2 non fault accidents, driving since '94.
Didn't bother phoning anyone else coz I thought that was a superb price as I was paying 670 (+ another 100 for mods) on my 97P 306GTi-6 just b4 I got the scoob.

Its because of all the ad's on TV, "where theres blame theres a claim" rubbish.
People are claiming more for things they wouldn't have bothered about before.
And who pays the price?? We do..
There was an undercover program on tv a while ago about a ring of people setting up accidents that diddn't happen and actually claiming for injuries!!!
AHHHRRGGG makes me ANGRY.....
