How much do you pay for your car insurance?

[andy_d]

Its always funny how an insurance company can do cheaper "new customer" quote on line, than your renewal for an exsisting customer. How do they work it all out anyway???

the math goes something like this

think of a number, double it, add 2 0's on the end, double it again for good measure, then take off the number of friends you have that know your an insurance bod. (usually less than 4) ,, offer to customer,
IF theres a sharp intake of breath, knock £10 off,
if the intake isnt too loud Then tell them theres all the "add ons" to go ontop....

renewing customer, find last years number and add a random 3 figure number to it, (same applys for intake of breath re discount/extras)

January 2009 - Re-Insured my V70 2.5 d = £225

January 2010 - Re-Insured my V70 2.5d = £200

May 2010 Changed car to S60 T5 - paid £75 extra for the difference in car.

January 2011 - Renewal for S60 T5 = £393

They all seem to be at it...Bunch of sharks

S40 T5 with lots of mods (all declared) and more power

SP30 two years ago.

G20 city postcode in Glasgow which is OK where I live but encompasses some fairly dodgy areas - and apparently really hikes the cost.
