I was quoted near €8000 last year for an Escort RS2000 and €3800 for a Subaru Impreza, but quotes had an excess of €4000, so really I was looking at €12,000 & €7800 :eek:

p-nut · 25-03-2008 07:15PM

most i was ever quoted was 3k on a citroen saxo vts, that was when i just turned 18 and got my pink licence in the post. few months later and i have one insured properly for 2200. still a lot, but soooo worth every penny of it:D:D:D

Paid IR£2300 (€2900) on my first car, a 1ltr TD Charade. That was with a full license, 22yr male, in 2001.
So insurance has got cheaper, contrary to popular belief.

got a crazy quote of 8000STERLING just a few weeks ago on a e46 m3 when i was thinking about moving to the north and got reasonably quoted 1900yoyo on the same car in the south! needless to say ive stayed in the south

close, Donegal.:p
but those TD charade's were animals of cars, 50bhp (on a good day) and a top speed of 65mph (going off a cliff)
And i'm pretty sure if i had been in an accident in it, it would have simply disintegrated and done no damage to any other car, tree, wall, dog, small child.

Paid €4609 for third party on a 1.4 Focus back in 2001 I think it was .... :eek: UNREAL.. THIRD PARTY :eek: WHAT was I thinking!!!!

princess-lala · 30-03-2008 01:05PM

I was paying 1500 this year on a 1.6 megane coupe then got a full licence and changed to a celica and they wanted an extra 2800 so I kindly refused their offer and changed to Quinn direct where i got it for 1800

€5000 3rd party on a 205 Junior Model! Thats 1L with no 5th gear. 30K miles and fully NCTd. The companies logic was that I was a learner and the car was over 10 years old. Rang up an hour later and got a quote of 2500 on a 1.1 206. Complete bollox
