Tried to get added to my girlfriends insurance a few weeks ago, she is currently paying 750 for herself, she has been driving for 6 months longer than me and is 6 months older than me, when we enquired about a years cover for myself we were quoted the very "rewasonable" (their words not mine) price of 1500. Needless to say we told them to take a flying, but it got me thinking how much are people paying on this board and how does it compare to their partners? |

Unfortunatly, my NCB is on my mums insurance and cannot be crossed over to my GFs, should really get round to doing my pass plus tho. |

In NZ, males pay a much higher premium than everyone else until they turn 25. I think our car insurance was about $NZ360 (for full insurance, not just 3rd party), which is approximately equivalent to £120 |

Nope, Fully Comp. GV, do the pass plus! and using your mum's insurance is about the worst thing you could do - you don't get your own NCB for a start. |

That's starting to change. You can build NCB with Directline now |

have you tried www.moneysupermarket.com ? it's excellent for getting a broad range of quotes, though i'm sure the devil's in the small print. here in brazil motor insurance is optional once the cost reached a quarter of the value of my old alfa i simply stopped paying... i feel uncomfortable every day, but unfortunately it makes some sense given the incredible red tape and lamentable legal system. i'm hoping that, being a not young person, and having a clean sheet, when i get back to the uk i will get pretty cheapish rates even without an NCB. |
