Cat C twice, (unofficially thrice)  :P

Fully comp, one year no claims (only had second policy for 18 months), 4 non fault prangs, one fault and one information only and with declared mods :y

Also, averaging 50k per year... doesn't help the risk factor any ::)

Far too expensive for a mere Vauxhall. :-\

.......landed on the mat this morning.

The details are as follows.

Fully comp for both myself and Mrs Opti to drive.

Excess.......£250

No claims discount...... PROTECTED


Total.......£128.38
. I can't get it any cheaper on comparison websites. Not too bad, I think. :y

That is stupidly cheap   :o  I would be concerned about how good it would be in the event of a claim  :-X Cheap insurance is all very well, but you need to be reasonably sure that they will pay out when they need to. Insurance companies need to make a profit, and at that price they are not making much so any payout could result in a big loss for them.

As good or bad as any other insurance company, I expect.

It is Saga, so hopefully fit for purpose. :y
