OMG insurance up 80%
Daisy (‘58 plate D90 garaged in Cotswolds) has just her LV insurance renewal and it has gone up by 80% to £450. This with 7y NCD, I’ve just turned 50 and no points. Why? Not aware of more being nicked round here, are LV trying to get out of Defender insurance, or have their costs gone up that much (profits)? Who would the hive-brain recommend please? 2.4TDCI 90 - everyday brilliance
S3 V8 Lightweight - in the garage being ignored #newchassistime
S3 lightweight - 2nd car 24V fire risk with a full tilt and the windscreen down
S1 80" - first car fun - 75mph in neutral downhill once #wobblesallround

The BBC covered is pretty well here.

But in short, claims are up, fixing cars costs more so in turn we all pick up the bill. Shocking price rises for insurance.

Long gone are the days where insurance was tailored to the individual (apart from in the minds of the marketing teams).

We are but a number..

Unfortunately for us as well this will encourage more people to risk not paying it and the issues that will arise following a no fault accident.
