Buying a ‘5 and Insurance advice Insurance Advice

So this weekend I’ve renewed my insurance with fj and I think they have surpassed themselves on value I have now insured on a classic multi car policy the following cars 

1991 eunos 

1994 mitsubishi pajreo lwb 2800td

1996 toyota rav4 (it qualified as a classic last month)

All of them are fully comp have show cover the 4x4 's also have off rd cover 

They are are also covered and I think this is the best bit on a like for like replacement or repair not  the market value 

Oh and it’s for the Mrs and I 

And the total cost is  £437 I’d say a bit of a bargin 

It was quite funny when I realised having given them the mileages that between the 3 cars in the last 12 months I’ve done a total of 1700 miles with the eunos having done the most

They wouldn’t insure me cause I wanted business use.

 

Adrian Flux quoted £475 later battered down to £300

Lancaster +£600

 

I can get for £240 from Privilege - use the comparison sites to get a good deal !

Lancaster Ins. 1992 4 ltr Jaguar Sovereign 6000miles per year for self & wife…£84.

I have to say I do not understand how these insurance companies work - having had my Mk2.5 Sport insured with Footman James for £134,I asked them for a quote on my 2008 MK3 2.0,the premium quoted shot up to nearly £300!!! - so I tried Lancaster and they came up with a more reasonable £185! I remain puzzled at these huge variations.So I think the best advice is do your research thoroughly for the best deal to suit you personally.

Insured with Esure £240 for 59 reg 2.0 Sports tech. Changed to new Sport Recaro an extra £140. Obviously a much higher risk?

All of you are making me feel like I’m paying the earth - 1 years NCB @ 26 years old - £825 for my 2002 MK2.5 1.6 - I can’t wait for mine to drop down to this low!!

It’s weird. I’m asking around after my renewal price shot up. And quoted prices seem to differ day to day, sometimes, for the same quote from the same broker! Finally gave up and settled with Adrian Flux for £164 but it includes my 19 year NCD protection (which saved me last year, although I had a years renewal after that with only a small price increase), sole driver and no commuting or business use and 6000m restriction as it’s the second car.

Thats a lot of money

It was cheap in comparison to some of the others I’d had; £1500+ and that was just for my previous 1.2L Clio but the above was my renewal price with Hastings for my MX5 so I snatched their hand off. Full comp with legal fees and recovery.
