Foo-king ell fire £1600 for a £500 van doesn't make sense. No wonder people don't have insurance. I payed £344 for a group 18 insurance motor fully comp, and thats with wife on insurance. Hold on, she'e the policy holder I'm the named driver Jonno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old rooster Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Don't assume that a company that purports to specialise in van insurance will be cheaper as they probably won't. I recently tried a few 4x4 "specialists" and their quotes were a joke!!!. Went back to "Direct Line" and it was about half the price. Can't say they will be best for you as different companies put their own age loading on the policy. Have you tried any farm type insurers ?. We have to appreciate that insurance is excessively expensive because the damage caused by joyriders, uninsured ****** and illegal immigrants all gets funded by us mugs who toe the line. We also have, due to this so called government, the joys of insurance tax. How the hell anyone can justify taxing insurance is beyond my comprehension. Good luck with your search, you could always get a set of Albanian number plates, much cheaper all round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
