Car Insurance question..Im confussed ?? ( uk )?
O.k so Im a new driver and bought a car and signed up with insurance which worked out about £60 a month. My car broke down beyond repair and I have suspended my insurance as had to scrap the car. Now I been on car insurance websites to compare many different cars to see which is cheapest and all my other details are same but no matter what car details i put (different ages/ values) but all small cars similar to my last vehicle the quote comes up double the cost at over £110. Why is this ?
By the way I made no claim against the car
No I had just passed my test when taking out my insurance now 4 months on and only had my first car for 6 weeks before it broke ( Got a bad deal from a private sale thought it would at least last me 12 months).... im so sad I was really happy to be on the road and Ive had nothing but problems since !!!!
My daughter's car was waiting to go for scrappage and as it was not running well she just kept it off the road.
But we left the insurance running and did not cancel it until a new policy had been taken out as did not want to lose the Protected No Claims and the associated history.
We were advised that this was the best way to do it. But in the two months of looking for an alternative insurance company the prices went up considerably. The media and the press said they were really not into insuring new drivers any more.
