who's the youngest who has a cupra?

[CupraTgirl]

Dont count on it ....
I thought my insurance would go down when I was 18 ... it didnt.
I thought my insurance would go down when I was 20 ... it didnt.
I thought my insurance would go down when I was 21 ... it didnt.
I thought my insurance would go down when I was 25 ... it didnt.

Im just waiting for the big 30 now .... Im pretty sure I know whats going to happen.

May be its just you?

More than likely!

The insurance DID come down a bit this year... but that's because my 10 points came off

What have you been doing then?

You have probably read my posts about it but mine has come down at least half since i was 20 and had my first cupra (i have changed Insurance companies but i know that my old one quoted me something similar to what im paying now as i considered going back to them when i got my second cupra last year)

I moved from Stoke to Telford ... and it came down .. then my points came off and it went down again. Think it's about £400ish for me now... But that IS a 110 Upsoluted TDI

I pay about £79 a month now, think it works out to be just under £700 a year and i have 2 years NCB and a claim just over 3 years ago now!

 

[slimjim]

I think im on £50ish a month... which covers all my cars

But im 27, Work in "IT", 5 years no claims, driving for 10 years ( ) and live in a good postal code area.....

 

[CupraTgirl]

Yeah see im 23 (wont go down that much until im 25 i wouldnt have thought), i have no idea if my line of work makes it go up or down, i have been driving for 6 years but only have 2 years NCB (nearly 3 years) and have no idea if my postal code makes it go up or down?

I see what i pay as quite reasonable now so im not really that bothered! Although if it went up i may not be ok with it

What would be a good postal code area?

 

[slimjim]

Gilford isn't that bad ... depending on where about your are.... but I'd have to have your full postcode to check ... whcih would be a bad idea as I wouldcome and stalk you

What are you "classed" in as doing for a living?

 

[CupraTgirl]

Ha ha! How funny!

Well i work in a Adminny type thing at the moment, kind of Junior Manager for a massive Engineering company based in Houston

I think if you say anything to do with computers your premium goes up.

Having said that... these blood sucking leeches put your premium up no matter what you say you do :w4nk:ers

I have always found that IF they will insure your car.... TESCO are good. Took me a week to pursuade them to cover me and my Jap imports, but it was worth it!

 

[Spanky]

I'm in IT, granted I'm 27... but I pay £400 for my LCR.... I should change jobs then !!

 

[Deleted member 10425]

didnt know that, next time i am just a recruitment consultant then !!

 

[slimjim]

I think the worst are Broadcasting .... and working in pubs ... I think.

More research needed...

£400 isn't bad for a 27 year old in IT in on an LCR Spanky ... that's pretty good .

 

[Copra]

thats strange......
i took my rx off the road for 1month this year because with my current situation, the insurance renewal went down about £200 if i waited untill i was 23 to reinsure it....

 

[CupraTgirl]

I dont see the relation to working in IT and a higher premium? Is it because your more likely to be using your laptop than driving the car?

Like i said in one of my posts, i heard that Air Hostesses Insurance went down becasue they dont travel as much but i would have thought it should be higher as when they do drive they are completly incoherent! I know i was after a flight

 

[flashbsd]

you will probably find its IT consultancy which has the higher premium slimjim

DOnt drive mine often so i only have 5k a year on minus commuting also.

 

[Copra]

5K a year??

ive done 10k in 8months in my current car!

get out more lad!! haha!

 

[CupraTgirl]

I cant remember exactly but i think mine was on about 46,000 when i got it last March and its on 58,000 now so i would say 12,000 a year average is right for me (obviously if my memory is serving me right)

Higher than working in a pub? I think not.... Im an IT Consultant.... and my premium isnt too bad

But in these situations... Im usualy wrong ... so I will go with yu FlashBSD

the mileage between 8k and 10k doesn't make any difference really - when i had my first car - i was workin near to home and had bf near to home so thought 8k would be ablut right - then he told me he didn't like my car so i dumped him started seeing someone miles away and found i would run out of mileage...so i rang up my insurance company and they just made me pay an admin fee of about a tenner to change my documents.

And tesco are pretty good - they wouldn't insure me in my first year of driving - and the second year i got insured it went down by 800 quid. 25 should make a difference - i put in a sample quote with my insurers - changing my date of birth and how long i'd been driving and it brought it down by a coupla hundred

there is a website where u can check ur postcode *goes off to find it*
