Reduced to 572 with a call, and then 546 with a special one-off never-to-be-repeated today-only discount offer. Other offers: 549 with Britton (who I left for AA last year) and 596 with BoI - both with higher excess. Other online quotes were in the 650+ range. PS: to the guy who wondered if having AA membership gives a better quote with AA, I asked and was told that it doesn't, but that you get slightly better benefits with it - unlimited windscreen, for example.

Quoting me €1450 this year. I know premiums have gone up but could I expect any better than that? AA quoted me €1576 but I have membership with them so was wondering how much of a discount I would get with that? (Couldn't put membership number in on the website for some reason.) €5500 with 123.ie :rolleyes:

Any older and you're getting into senile stuff, any younger they can claim they're still a boy racer. This has to be the biggest increase so far posted here? 3x as much. At this point what are we meant to do? With my astronomical 1900 eu quote and his 1300 and several refusals (age of car, 'high performance car', etc) no doubt my mothers quote will rise too as it's a blindingly fast 170bhp :rolleyes:

Gonna have to shop around a bit more so does anyone know any that'd be cheaper? Tried getting a quote with a Grandparent as the main driver and me as a named driver. None were willing to insure. Maybe I was going about the named driver angle wrong? I was planning on having my Grandmother put the car in her name and me as a named driver but AXA,Aviva and Liberty had a bunch of different reasons for not insuring. Does her having another car in her name have any effect? Aviva said they weren't allowed to insure her since she already had another car insured with AXA.

Saul T Nutzz wrote: » A broker represents a number of insurers so you only need to give them your details once and they can check with multiple companies. They also tend to have access to more niche insurance products that may suit first time drivers better. Some of the larger ones include Chill or Quote Devil.
