Ours is around £500 for DH who is 33 no claims no points. The premiums shot up around 25% when we moved from the South West to South East

Ours does seem too high compared to what the rest of you are paying, but I used to work in car insurance so am fairly savvy with it, I've done everything possible to drive it down and no dice.

I would say yours is average. Do you not suspect that those dibbers with high premiums are not coming on to admit to it ( accidents/ endorsements) so it makes it look as if every one else’s premiums are lower. Mine is around £400 -bog standard Peugeot 308, both over 50, no points, 1 non fault claim but unfortunately live in a cash for crash area.

Thanks, you are probably right and I know our area has higher premiums for some reason. Just surprising to see those in their 20s saying they are paying £200odd! DH has full 6yrs NCD no points and is only driving a 1.4 Seat Leon.

Cor, look at all the information people are voluntarily sharing on an open internet forum for anyone to see. Car insurance companies should hang out here.

Anyhoo...

Mine's £180 a year for a 48yo driving a 5 year old Skoda Citigo (I don't need anything larger). Wife is on it too. That's also with the excess as low as possible (£50, I think).

[claireyfairy8]

None of us are quoting our annual mileage which will make a difference. Black boxes, dash cams, extra drivers... all these things make a difference.

Certainly I saved £80 by removing my dad but keeping my mum on as a named driver, and from moving house, the post code change saved me about £60.

40 and Ive just paid £210 with Tesco for my 2012 Peugeot 308. They were actually the cheapest on the compare site and there was a small discount for being a clubcard holder. As long as I've got legal cover and protected no claims Im happy.

Just had my renewal , last year £180, this time £233. But go compare has found me £133. Result for being old! (55)

[Pussycat Doll]

Just do my renewal too, last year £294, this year £301. Went on Go Compare, same company was £237! Rang them up and got it for £217! Makes up for the fact its just cost me £540 to tax the damn thing!
