A list of cars like that, your age and seeing your good lady is a novice driver there is only one question - exactly what compromising photos do you have of your insurer?

BTW do multi car policies allow you to use your NCB on multiple vehicles?

Some do - I am with Admiral, so I get NCB on my 406, and the missus gets NCB on her Picasso. She was even getting NCB as a named driver...

Errr, ok :?

Actually, I thought this was going to be another one of those "why are my insurers asking for so much more money on my 406 that other cars that are more likely to be stolen/driven by reckless idiots/easier to damage/cost just as much if not more to repair?" type questions. Answer - PSA didn't bribe the right people.

FWIW, the premium for my 306DT was less than my Fiesta Mk4 with an Encore engine. My 406 is more than the 306, but still within what I would consider a reasonable amount. There just isn't any logic to insurance anymore, other than pure greed on the part of insurance companies.

I renewed the insurance on the 406 last week, and changed to a different insurance company, now the policy is a multi car policy for both the 406 and 305,
These companies like to nag about their extra services they had some extra thing for medical insurance or compensation up to £200,000 for only £25 a month and its on trial at this low price, then there was a replacement key service and a breakdown service.

Anyhow the issue is they called from an 0800 number to my mobile, i checked yesterday and it had £7 of credit in it, but after the call i had 14p of credit, can these companies do a reverse charge on their outgoing calls, or has 02 charged for something else?

I always ask for a 'call-back' - just say you are on a budget and can they call you back - they always do as they want your business...
