€4142.08...yep, that's it, and no the decimal point is not in the wrong place, needless to say I was fooking shocked, not that I can afford insurance anyway but still would have liked the option to if I could!!
 
Holy sh1t!!!!
I was getting quotes like that when I was 18.

What age are you? Have you a no claims bonus?
That can't be right.
 
I know, I'm 25 with a full clean licence for bout 4 years now, 2 years ncb, I would have 4 but had a mishap a couple of years ago with a roadsweeper
 
That is nuts in this day and age. Fucking Hell mate. Start looking around.

I had an Insurance company ring me today looking for me to give them business today as my insurance is due next month. When I told them I had an Impeza STi before they start to take my details they told me they don't insure them and I got a big good bye from the. :lol:
 
Seems to me they don't want you as a customer giving a quote like that. Simple way of getting another Subaru/performance car off it's books.
 
Hello Mark,

Is this with a normal insurance company or one of the companies with a €4k excess :ponder2:

That is un-real :naughty:

I just renewed this week, Axa wanted about more €450 this year :doh:

I ended up getting €200 off last years price after a lot of giving out :thumbsup:

I think with all the recent r.t.a's that premiums will go up, but the impact of recent claims should not kick in for a while :dontknow:

Sorry to hear again Mark, can you please name the insurance company :thumbsup:

You may also be able to involve the ombudsman if you are being quoted out of an insurance renewal unfairly :thumbsup:

Cheers,

Michael
 
Was through First Ireland, was expecting it to go up but not that much!!

I'm looking around at the moment, but it isn't coming cheap thats for sure :angry1:

I know Andy, it feels that way!
 
Last year it was €1500, so a bit of a jump, but just finished reading through the letter I got and its with a crowd called ARB Technical Services :dontknow: through First Ireland
 
Hello Mark,

If it is any good to you I can send you on my brokers details :thumbsup:

I taught Leggys were cheap to insure :dontknow:

Cheers,

Michael
 
I was getting mad renewal quotes last time out. Ended up going to a local broker and let him do the donkey work. He got me insurance with Zurich for €670 fully comp even though they'd quoted me nearly double that when i'd rang them myself. Same details as yourself but with the extra NCB. I'd call into a few brokers if I was you, that price you got is ridiculous.
 
Cheers Michael, I'd appreciate it, I thought they were too but not getting a break at all, on easyquote,insure.ie,chill.ie,quoteme.ie,123.ie,nononsense.ie etc and nothing good so far
 
Jesus mark thats mental, i got mine through first ireland and the underwriter was ARB man and it was 1800 and thats only with 250 excess, can't find any understanding or reason there hitting you with that, for as said reason to get it off there books. I went shopping around and not one company would entertain me, so basicaly they have your back to the wall. Hope that micks broker sorts you out mate.
 
Did you ring them and tell them they made mistake? I would and if they hadn't I tell them I was off. Beleave me their looking to loose business but they will push you quote up from last year.
 
I rang them and all I got was :icon_blahblah: :icon_blahblah: It says on the letter that its a competitive price and I asked them how on earth is it competitive and all I got was "eh...uh...em" told them to forget it, all I wanted was insurance I wasn't looking to buy the company and hung up :angry1:
 
Mark,

I'd contact the insurance ombudsman about this... regardless whether or not you accept their quote.

They shouldn't be allowed away with this sort of crap and the ombudsman is there to try and prevent this.

Best of luck with sorting a quote... hope you get it taken care of soon.

J... :thumbsup:
