Someone said that there is a scheme whereby booking driving lessons with certain providers gives you lower insurance costs or maybe its vice versa? Any steer much appreciated. My own insurance went up age: 59 Car: 05 Corolla, 1.4 Comprehensive with Liberty €291 last year - increased to €375 this year despite full no claims eventually got €331 from 'Its for women' but they quoted me 1800 for my daughter she was out of the country when I was renewing so there was no point in opting for a combined policy at the time. Have since changed the car to '10 Fiesta

PBWXFORD wrote: » Yes decrease to €351 in Feb for my renewal! Now in saying that i was insured on a Vectra CDTI the past 3 years and firstly on this years renewal and then i did a transfer to the GTi in March, but from checking online quotes the GTI is actually cheaper to insure than the Vectra for some reason? Although when i did the transfer the premium stayed the same as the Vectra it didnt drop. Ive been with Liberty/Quinn since 2001 as they have always given me the best quotes and when i lost my licence and got it back they were also the only company that would insure me with all the endorsements! I dont have the policy with me its at home but heres the pic of the quote i did online! Now the reason i did the online quote is because my renewal by post was actually more expensive than last years, i think it was €720 or thereabouts. So i did the quotes online and found them alot cheaper before i rang them up to ask why had this years premium gone up since i had no clamis and she said they are all gone up so i said thats funny because i did an online quote and got it for €351. She asked did i have a reference number which i did and gave to her and when she looked it up she said "oh yes i see it here now and all your details are entered the same, i dont know why that is but i will give it for that price" And thats how i got it Now unless there was some mistake at the time i did the online quote i dont know but they had no choice but to accept it as i had the reference number for it! Do any of you have people as named drivers? I have 2 people as named drivers on mine which brought it down an awful lot from just being on the policy myself?

Ive had alot of Pug GTI's over he years, 106's 306's etc and Liberty have always insured them no problem Vandriver its 9 endorsements stamped on the licence! The insurance are aware of them also as i had to send a photo copy of the licence to them

PBWXFORD wrote: » Oh yes, and anyway i rang them to ask about my renewal before telling them about the cheaper quote but they are well aware of them anyway! And the strange thing is that before i was disqualified from driving my insurance was €4,100 on a 1.0 Citroen, but my first car as soon as i got my licence back was a 1.6 Megane and it only cost me €2,400 on a provisional which dropped to €1,800 3 months later when i passed my test! But like i said its always Liberty that give me the best price and when i got my licence back Liberty were the only company that would insure me! By the way, for that quote you got, have you anybody as named drivers or are you on your own? Because the named drivers on mine brought it down quiet a bit

PBWXFORD wrote: » Yes definitely put in a named driver! When i got my licence back i was quoted a little over €3,200 on my own and just by adding my girlfriend as named driver brought it down by over €800! Also on last years renewal i did an online quote just to see what would happen if i added another driver ( a friend of mine who was 49 at the time with full clean licence) and it took another €270 i think off so i rang the insurance to add him in on my renewal and thats what brought it down to €458 last year!
