The drop of 10% each year with AA seems promising, but they'll probably increase Base Premiums next year to cover losses. Some good citizen working from home might be able to spreadsheet together a calculator but I doubt I'll be able too.

What we will see before the year is out though is increases in fuel and motor tax to make up the shortfall in the government coffers

But even if my knowledge is not up to date.....if I was in your shoes, I would be inclined to pick some other make and model than a BMW E46 ( lovely car BTW ) I'd be very interested in how you get on...one of the grand kids is coming up to licence age now, and soon the car and insurance issue, will appear. Good luck with it.

Its the fraud that needs to be dealt with, not the cars. Its simply the lazy option to target the car.

Wibbs wrote: » To be fair on the other side of things, I've noticed some nuance coming into it in the last few years. I drive a 22 year old car and an Integra Type R(AKA Honda Babyeater Insurance Risk 2000 ) and after a few years of insane premiums that rose rapidly from around 6-700 quid in the mid noughties up to around 2000 quid around 2014-18(they were the ones who wanted my biz, I got quotes past 4k from the ones who didn't), prices have been steadily dropping for me and this years dropped a 100 quid from last years down to now just over 700. They told me my age, NCB, no points, low mileage and long years of ownership make a big difference, whereas even five years ago that seemed to mean feck all. It was more of a general yay or nay approach, or they were pushing for a newer car and adding it as a "classic". Even then the prices were nuts. I actually don't mind high costs when they're logical and justified. I get that. It's when they appear and often are arbitrary and daft, then...
