Insurance advice

[Over Carl]

Whilst we're on the cheap insurance/glitches hijack, another one seems to work if you can only get affordable quotes on tiny engines/crap cars is to get a policy on a smelly car then before that runs out tell them you've changed car to something better. It obviously will go up, but for some strange reason will often be a lot cheaper than what it should be.

Also try random things like adding parents/spouse as additional drivers. When my parents were <60 it knock ~£30 adding one of them as a second driver. I've had a mate who was quoted £20 cheaper to add his misses who only had a provisional. There's some weird glitch that seems to think if you're not the only driver you're a lower risk.

I have my mum on mine. Knocks about £100 off.

Stick it through the insurance company ....they virtually force you to claim for whiplash get a minimum of £2500 use some of that to pay the extra your insurance will charge you on renewal and take a little holiday with the rest ! Simples :-p

But if you can't beat them join them! Next web will have their own cheaper policies... On hang on...

You must have made a claim a while ago. For a Low Speed Impact with no Physio over 6 months, you'll be lucky to see over £1500. You can make a BI claim via the Accident management firm, if you're injured, this WILL go onto the CUE system, but is not visible to other companies like motor claims checks pre inception.
