Between getting a far better car and now in the hospitality sector (which they dont like) it was far less than I was dreading.....

Wasn't expecting much but shopped around and just Got quoted KennCo €806 fully Comp. Absolutely floored that it went down after adding 9 points, was fully expecting to be done over a barrel this year. Only downside seems to be the high excess (€1000) but given I'm losing the telematics I'll happily take it.

They are looking for €577.92, up from the €508.32 I paid last year. Cover is comprehensive on a 2011 Avensis 2.0 D4D. 39 year old male, full Irish license held for almost 20 years, non penalty points, no claims, no convictions and full no claims discount. Living in a rural area. Feel I can do better. Will be getting quotes over the next week or two and will keep you posted.

Guess i'll just have to suck it up but was wondering, what sort of drop would I see in the premium in the second year assuming of course no penalty points,accidents etc.. Thanks
