gutted...

[[han]]

i'm gutted and need consoling! 

i've just found out the insurance company i'm with on my driver wo't insure me on a cab! so i'll have to lose a years no claims or wait til december til i renew! to get insured!

i still haven't got money from insurance yet either, but when it comes through i  guess i've got longer to wait unti i can get one! but i'm looking at august when they'll next payout! 

maybe 2007 is the year of the cab for me!

What did they say when you asked them about changing cars ?

I know a lot of places will refuse to give people a new quote on higher risk cars, but if you simply change the policy they ask for more money and let you get on with it. Happened to me when i first bought my 1.8T.

i was looking into changing cars, i told them money wasnt an option, but its something to do with engine size, and them being classed as a "sports car" due to being convertible, my age also doesn't help!

topher.. i was expecting a bashing!

[topher]

from me ? but i'm lovely.

if you're planning that far ahead might be worth switching insurance companies now? only lose a few months then as opposed to august. Or have a parent insure the cab with you as a named until the current policy is up?

mum n dad both have one car each (obv dad is lookin for another van.. but he will have his own business policy!)

i renew in december... im halfway there, guess i really gotta wait and 3 yrs no caims will help!!!

[omg its aj]

I'd wait... as you said you havent even got the payout yet... and atleast if you know its gonna be december before u can insure it that'll give you plenty of time between payout and the day you can insure so you wont get over-eager to buy and can shop around and find a cab you really like.

They obvioulsy see you as a 'high risk' driver !
