    Bloody hell, more than £2.5k to replace a sunroof! What car is it? I've an e220 with one of them, never really gave it much thought

    Winner! Well done, congraturaltions and all that! Shelling out hundreds of additional £'s is a small price to pay for such an accolade I wonder if that further hike is related to the EV fire at Luton airport;)

    I tried but the policy is online only, when I keyed the initial digits in the automated call system it states online only. Online states no better offer. All tied up in a neat bow! Plus comparison sites have similar policy costs. Tossers. I'll swallow it, no choice if I want the car. Some...

    I thought higher mileage, within reason, lowered premiums. I've no garage or drive, car abandoned in the road- so that impacts too. Always been the same though

    Have to admit there's sense in it. I'm a 'no you f***ing don't' type of driver, hence those incidents and hence why insurance companies do that. The bastards!

    Yep, that's my experience. Over 50, 2015 merc estate so not exactly high risk or value these days (car that is, I'm priceless....). I have two no fault 'incidents' and that's probably part of the reason, as unfair as that seems. Even so, massive hike. While I could have saved £50 I'd prefer...

    Friend of mine just told me his had gone from £450 to £900. Crazy stuff, reckons he's going to sell it, hardly uses it as it is.

    Is it true that you can't say c@nt in Canada? If so, is that to protect car insurance firms from abuse?

    Makes you want to go and ram someone doesn't it?!!

    Whilst it did sound good there's no cost reduction. Clearly this is where the market is now. I've had the same with my company's PI, thought after 8 years of no claims it would be really low but no.

    Sounds good - I'll take a look at that, thanks

    So are we in a place right now where IC engine owners are subsidising the cost risk to insurers of EVs due to write offs? If so I'd imagine EV premiums are going to start to rise the reflect the higher cost risk to insurers to those vehicles. They won't want that happening now though with the...

    Mad isn't it - all those improvements in security from when you could rock a ford cortina from side to side and pop the locks (or use any ford key) and tech savy thieves can bypass it all. So we return to steering wheel locks - seeing more and more of these now.

    Bloody good result. I tried contacting aviva, who I'm with. No telephone support, only online support. On line policy states no reduction in renewal price, take it or f@ck off. Given that comparison sites have similar costs stated I guess I'm stuck with it.

    It's insane. I've looked around and can't see anything worth changing for, which means there's little I can do to reduce the price. I may try lying to see what they can do I guess, pretend I've found a lower quote somewhere

    Just got a renewal advice through - tells me that last years premium of £465 will now be £792. No change beyond another year passing. 70% increase FFS! Didn't bother me that much initially given that they always try it on, but checking comparison sites indicates this is the new norm. Might...
