Seems some have had luck with Liberty and 123, I will give them a call as they were unable to quote online.

I'm now into the 20+ year old car insurance. 123.ie have stopped quoting me online but still sent out the renewal price. €550, up 50 from last year. Is it just AXA that will quote me now that my car is over 20 years old. Its my daily drive so don't think classic is an option.
This was the lowest car insurance quote I have ever seen in this country. Congrats!
Has anyone here switched from liberty to axa, and had any issues later on, for eg. drastically increasing the premium for the next year or following years or just not insuring an old car anymore. I have a 99 Celica and getting another ridiculous tpf&t renewal premium from liberty this year at over €1200 when axa's is quoting 491 comprehensive and an addon option of protected NCD for an additional €66.25
Thanks
01 ford Mondeo ...Aviva have been the cheapest for me the last few years ... between 380 to 440 TPFT...I'm happy with that ...
Is it difficult to get a new policy on an old car ?
Currently with post insurance(Aviva) but may be cancelling and taking out a new policy after a break and they won't take me back with an old car
50yo, full no claims no points ,no claims etc
If it's not cancelled with Aviva yet, then don't. I had the exact same problem with Aviva. Went from an 01 to and 06 car for a few months, and when renewal came up they would not let me go back to the 01 car.
same with my son shopping lately, only AXA would even look at something, and the price was the going rate.
My daughter got hers on an 06 with Liberty, so worth a call too.
Finally, First Ireland can be good for older stuff as well.
€470 renewal for my 1999 Corolla. Allianz.
€350 with Allianz on 2003 VW Polo 1.4tdi. 49, full licence, full ncb, no points, no claims. Fully comp plus open driving for anyone 30+. Delighted with this.
Is that a renewal or new business?
New business
Hello all. Chipping in here.
Any recommendations please for a company to insure a 94 Corolla. It's a relatives car. Passed NCT last week, drives like butter.
45 yo male with 3 years NCB with 123.ie
Tried all the major Irish companies I think but no joy. It is a very frustrating experience.
They suggest classic cover but it would be a day to day car.
And might it be somehow discriminatory them refusing to insure a perfectly road worthy vehicle?
Thanks for any input.
Mine (1999) is with Allianz - presume you have tried them?
Hello.
Thanks for the reply.
I don't think I've tried Allianz.
But have you had that car insured with them for a good number of years?
The problem arises when its it's a new policy being sought I think.
I am with them since 2008 for this car. Yes, no problem getting a renewal but going to a new company is pretty difficult.
That's it...if not pretty difficult, then impossible.
Makes you wonder what the point of the NCT is.
Very frustrating though.
It's related to risk a new owner will stage a fake crash or more likely to claim. Existing customers are less likely to claim. It's a risk/reward trade off for insurer, not that I like it.
I don't buy that for a minute. If you are moving from one company to another, and have the log book of that old car in your name (say for years), and have a track record of NCB (say on the that same old car), then frankly there is no change in risk profile.
it's just oppportunism by Insurance Co's, that's all.
As for 'existing' customers - I don't see ANY reward for being loyal to any Insurance Co at all, and that's before you say the words 'differential pricing' . https://www.centralbank.ie/regulation/industry-market-sectors/insurance-reinsurance/review-of-differential-pricing-in-the-private-car-and-home-insurance-markets
Jealous, tried Allianz on my 2007 Volvo S60 2.0. 42, full license, full ncb, 3 points, no claims.
Comp showing as €690 and TPFT at €680. With same bonus protection & breakdown assist as I currently have total comes to a whopping €779 which is miles off my renewal with 123 at €546. Couldn't beat the renewal last year, FBD were the only ones to come close and others were completely off the charts with Axa being over €1,450
Despite all the negative press/supposed government pressure its all still wild west with insurers.
I've a 19 year old 2.0 petrol turbo subaru. Renewal time predictably price went up. Rang around, all the usual including aviva who "won't insure a car that old". Tried an post - a stunningly low fully comprehensive with full no claims protection etc for 320. Underwriters? Aviva. The same aviva that won't insure me.
And to add to it all I was with an post 2 years ago, same car and had to leave because they jacked up the price because of the car's age.. Which is now 2 years older.
Its a lottery. At least I won it this year, still think 320 was a mistake but ill take it, lowest I've ever had!
i have a 2004 Mercedes E320 petrol . I am 50 plus with full NCB . Any recommendations on where to source best quote . I have only bought car and am getting quotes of 1200 euro which is crazy . I appreciate it is a big engine older vehicle . Any assistance greatly appreciated.
Hi All, any recommendations for brokers for this situation? No luck so far. 16 year old Focus, small engine. I'm over 30 with no insured experience in the last 5 years so not getting quotes from anyone, apart from one 3k quote. I have experience from over 5 years ago which isn't being recognised.
Some people on here getting quotes from Allianz sometime adding a second driver with experience can help.
Toyota Corolla Verso 2006 1.6, 46 yo.
AIG Deluxe renewal €340, which is fully comprehensive and includes driving other vehicles and roadside assistance with homestart.
I see plenty of IS200/Altezza on the road, all over 15 years old. How are people insuraning what many companies would consider a performance import when most have trouble getting a quote on small engine Irish domestic market car of the same vintage?
Fully comp this year for €400, €480 last year.
