Title: Hmmm thats not good
Post by: VW BUSH on 05 November 2011, 17:40: Just got quoted £700 for TPFT and £805 for FC (both with PNCB) for my 98 Mk3 8v :shocked:
Got my renewal coming up in the new year, 9yrs ncb and 35 yrs of age seems to make no difference in sutton.
Thats £300 more than i paid for the car!

I AM NOW GRUMPY :angry:

I paid £550 at 22 on my Mk3 8v Gti with all the mods declared, would have been circa £450 without mods :wink:

Post by: VW BUSH on 09 November 2011, 12:54: I was with you (HIC) until Jan this year when my policy went up 40% due to snow last year!(likley story) It went from £380 tpft to £560 witn no accidents or claims......
So I went with (cheapest) Admiral who did me £420 for a fully comp policy + pncb with £1000 excess.
This was so I could treat it as a third party and save on your renewal quote for tpft.
When I swapped over to my new Golf, same model, same amount of valves, less value, Admiral charged me £210 extra as my car was 3 years newer, this put me at £630 for this years cover.
Now I check for what next year is going to be like its gone up to £800 tpft and £760 fully com with £1000 excess again.

Quite frankly I think i will give up the golf and walk in the new year, just not worth it when you have to keep a roof over your head.
If I cant get £400 cover (which is what the car cost me) then its getting sorned and broken up.
Ironey is that the cost for me to insure a new car is the same, which would have to be paid out on if it got damaged.........
