Zero points Price and provider: 739 from of all folks Chill and about 100 quid down from last year. Fully comp with agreed value. Oddly no open drive, but I care not TBH(and they told me if I needed that for a rental car/holidays or whatever just to give them a bell). Chill were a kind of Hail Mary last resort after another crowd after a year of near double the above price, decided to double it again and cover less and others just flat out refused or quoted what I consider telephone numbers(one broker quoted three grand). The chap on the phone from Chill that year when he came back to me was apologetic at the price and was confused at my glee. Now to be fair I'm an old fart, I've never had any claim, never any points, or tickets before they came in and have always had pretty insurance unfriendly cars and am driving the above jalopy for 15 years and do low mileage. During the chat they did say all this very much stood to me. Especially the long term use of the older car. My risk is low. If I was looking for my first year insurance on the same car, or even a lower power/risk car of the same age well, good luck. Which to be fair is a nice change to hear. In previous years the length of ownership or the fact it's my "pet car" at this stage seemed to mean nada. I even checked this with a few saying I had the car a year or two and it made little difference. So yeah, it's nice to see some nuance come in.
