Its nothing personal, its that you don't tick the boxes for the type of driver they want. That's no reflection on you, it could be for the most mundane of reasons. Liberty for example seem to be targeting the young driver market at the moment, they are quoting a lot at decent (relative to the risk) premiums but then quoting seasoned motorists like yourself ridiculous prices. On the surface it doesn't make sense but they are obviously putting their eggs in a particular basket.

If its not too much hassle for you I'd love if you could try, just to see would they quote you seeing as you are (presumably) residing in RoI and to see what they would quote.

Great if it works for you do, it didn't for me last year.. there's unlikely to be much wiggle room in quotes of 1.3k and upwards, at least palatable wiggle room. I'll not hold my breath that it will be better this year seen as premiums continue to rise.

They were far and away the cheapest again. The next cheapest was €683.00 with AXA (i think, can't remember exactly) and from there it went to over 800 quid from others. Surprised by how many companies who would not quote me at all. Its like being 20 years old again. Absolutely maddening some of them.

My insurance has gone up over 1 thousand euro, luckily I can afford it but many others can't, it's no wonder so many are driving without insurance and I'd expect that number to grow in future as premiums become unfeasible. Certainly needs to be a proper investigation into the who industry.

Trying to shop around but can't seem to get anything cheaper elsewhere.. Happy enough with the quote but can never seem to make the 'shopping around' work for me!
