All mods declared,it just keeps rising,year after year.FFS. ](*,) :xmad:

I also have a 'Silly fast,rare,easy nickable,motorbike',and it costs me peanuts to insure. :xconfused:

Usual mods. Gruppe M,KPRO etc.

If my insurance got to over £700 (currently £570 FC with all mods declared) I would consider something else. High insurance premiums are for youth, now I'm 28 i don't expect to pay silly prices.

I am due to renew soon and was looking at some rough figures.

On a multi car policy its costing £750 for my DC5 (alloys and AEM) and 450 for her Abarth with Admiral.

If i insure the car direct as a single policy its £500. :xconfused:

I agree my insurance should be coming down and not up im 27, 10 years no claims, and besides a bike (for now) I have all my licences aswell as a dangerous goods licence. :unsure:

I was told that as a used car salesman I was a high risk inusree, but apparently as a project manager (office based) I am more of a risk so they hiked my insurance up again. :xrealangry:

I'm sure they make this excrement up as they go along really, But definetely never going back to Elephant again bunch of robbing bams. :xrealangry:

Although as my car build progresses I am aware my premiums will rise but I think anything past £1500 is a bit much considering my driving past.

Nice input.
I'm pretty sure everyone has had a moan about insurance at some point, and I'd put money on you having moaned too.
It is extortion after all.

This thread isn't a whinge about insurance, it's a basic question as to how much is too much as it is starting to get ridiculous!

How much is too much is is a hard question to answer I've paid as much as £2100 now its a lot lower but I would pay the same again if I had to, can't really say how high I would be willing to go.

U never know. U may pay all your life 1000-2000 pounds per year and never use that money... or u may spend some on fixing your car if the accident is your fault.

EDIT: There is no option in here to make full insurance for people under 25. especially on sport cars!

For real,Kazmo? :xconfused:

I've been with the same insurance company since '07. No claims,no convictions in five years,and it's the highest premium,EVER. :angry:

Just got off the phone,and we did a deal. Happy again. :p
