insurance premiums

[gmopar59]

Last month got the new cost of my policy on a 2005 Honda Civic Sport which is worth £300, don't drive much so has suited my needs. Doubled from £270 odd to £550 FFS, What's goin' on? Anyway managed to get another £100 off.
Got the Dart renewal this week which has gone up by £35 and is still under £300, happy days.

Yes insurance companies are not losing money on all these new Electric cars that catch fire and they have to pay in full, so we all pay

Yep, we know about that. Jack's Range Rover is not cheap to insure at all, and it's 10 years old.
The series 3 ambulance and Fire Engine are ok though.

Seems to depend on the vehicle, (obviously I suppose), but also your postcode has a lot to do with it. Just insured my SRT Jeep for £375 fully comp.

There are only a handful of underwriters that all of the insurance companies use. They have got together to fix prices. Cartels are the way of the modern world.
