Butterflies did not increase the quote 

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Mrs Opti's Corsa 1.2 cost £103 fully comp with myself as a named driver.

She also received a meerkat/meercat...


.....her briefly-owned Mazda RX-8 cost £180 ish.

[Stallion]

Either of those prices il gladly take anyday Opti. But my quotes are on the other end of the 3 figures

I did some insurance quotes last night as it's up for renewal next year.. last year I paid £645 for both cars (then the MR2 Roadster and Omega) - this year looks like £780 for both cars (now the E46 M3 and Omega). Not bad, better than I expected anyway!

Good result mate, especially getting a free meercat as well
What do you feed it on?

That's all?  

I would have thought the difference would be a lot more.  Driving a 3 litre must be considerably more of a risk for an insurance company than a 1.1, I would have thought.

£1300 for a 3.2, no NCB, £1250 for a 3.2 Taxi, 4 years NCB

I dread to think what my 3.0 would have been with no NCB , my daughter was quoted over £3k for her first year on a corsa

pity you can't put them all on one, although it might not be any cheaper...

[Elite Pete]

My 03, 2.2DTi GLS is £60 a year more than my 51 3.2 Elite 

[Andyfloss]

insurance can be a bit of a joke. especially with age. Being 23 they LOVE me when it comes to renewal ha. i pay 1200 on the omega 3.0 MV6, thats 2 years NCB and 6 points aswell so wasnt that bad but i was paying £950 on my skyline?!?! work that out ha

I asked a mate of mine who works for an insurance company to explain it.

Take your average 1.1L car - pug 106? Driven by spotty 19 year old with zero years experience, a belief in his immortality, and regularly carries two or three equally spotty, inexperienced and immortal friends.

Compare to your average 3.0L car - BMW? Audi? Omega.  Driven by 40 year old sales executive with 20 years driving experience, and a wife and 2.4 kids to survive for.

Which is most likely to be involved in an accident?

I would estimate your average 1.1 car is 100x more likely to have a claim than a 3.0

Should be cheaper
