My renewal quote is up a €100 last year, can I bring up the Coronavirus, why my insurance should be reduced?

Left it lapse for 1 year and now they want 2400+ for it, if anyone quotes at all 25 years old, 5 years license 3 years ncb 2 years named driver. put in quotes for 335i, audi s8, 7 series, anything random with a big engine and chill always says 938 euro fully comp. It's a sign i have to get rid of the superb and get something noice

Car value of €7000! and manually putting in my address instead of used my eircode was a €200 difference for the online quote as a new customer.
phester28 wrote: » You mean not using Eircode and upping the value of the car decreased the quote by 200?? FYI my 1998 e36 BMW 318i is now only getting quotes from axa and chill and neither are cheap up from 700 last year to 850 now. No way to bring it down. Full clean NCB etc

joefuss1986 wrote: » I ended up ringing cos I was renewing and it was a new customer quote. He wouldn't let me progress without my address. He said that I had to have a specific address. They would then be able to factor in traffic in the area etc. Makes sense I suppose. Still have it valued at 7 grand tho! Think it saved me 80€.

They all want me to be the primary driver on another car in Ireland (for classic car insurance), which is crazy, we don't need three cars, I just use my wife's car for any long distances. All I want is normal insurance on an old car, but they all seem to have a 20 year old car age limit, which is nonsense. I'll even take third-party at this point. I've tried Axa, First Ireland, Carole Nash, FBD, AIG, and countless others. I thought sod it, I'll just export it back to the UK, keep my insurance on it there, a long as Brexit doesn't screw everything up, EU law states that I'll have unlimited third party in Ireland, which is good enough for me. The problem here is I don't get my Irish log book until I tax the car, and I can't tax the car without insurance, and I can't get insurance!!! Any suggestions welcome.
