Insurance Shocker !!!
#1
An insurance shocker ??  


Well it was for me thats for sure !!!!!!


Last year my Berlingo insurance was £245 Comp for my wife and myself .... 

This year the insurance was a mere  £156 Comp for my wife and myself ....


A handsome £ 89  less than the previous year


What the heck is happening .... not that I'm complaining of course.


Anyone else renewing now found a reduction in prices ???

Ours went up last year and was to go up again this year so I changed companies to pay less than we did two years ago.
Now a 2019 K9 1.2 petrol.
Before a 2010 B9 1.6 HDi diesel.

Yes, it has been reported that there has been a drop in insurance prices due in part to repair costs coming down [parts now easier to get as supply chains from most manufacturers are better] plus people driving less in general, so less accidents. 

A caveat has been that as car insurance has dropped across the board, most insurers are offering lower renewals but it's still aways advisable to do an on-line comparison as most still offer even lower prices for newer customers. Although my insurance renewal with my existing company did drop this year, an on-line quote for a policy with more cover with another company was £90 cheaper than my original quote from my existing company.

I was a step ahead this year for my van and landlord insurances and got onto the comparison sites a few weeks in advance.
But in both cases the renewals came back cheaper than the lowest quotes.

Older ... sadly yes .

When I was younger I used to long to be 25 yrs old in order for the insurance to go down with a bump Lol ...
