Insurance companies just don't want customers who own older cars. 123 won't quote new customers on older cars so you are lucky they gave you a reasonable renewal rate. I have until the end of the month to get a renewal so if anyone one else can suggest other companies please do so. Here's who I've tried and could not get a quote Chill 123 AVIVA BOI AA

They told me to call Libertry directly but that doesn't help since I already have a quote with them. Has anyone here taken out a new policy this year on an old car and few so who with? I just want a few companies I can call so I can see if the liberty quote for renewal is reasonable.

As a carer i do have a free travel pass, so again would that be something i should inquire about? I know i should be asking AXA these things, i just wanna hear if someone else had asked about these before and managed to get it down before going back to their branch.

I'm only 30 but I have six years NCB. For a car that's about to be 16 years old and has a 2.5 litre engine, that's amazing! For reference, I paid €2295 this time last year for the same car with KennCo (also via a broker)!
