Andydee Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 It'll probably come down again in a couple of years when you turn 40 as well and no-one can find the road it's parked on anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no balls Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 and no-one can find the road it's parked on anyway! I saw that this morning. I didn't have the energy to ask the hard hats what the fuck they were doing. I take it it's related to a catholic football club run by a woman who looks like she gave up on her appearance decades ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like all groundworkers they stood around for about an hour, checked their folders of risk assessments and method statements then fucked off somewhere else!!

Sy86 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Parking on the street can be cheaper than on your driveway. All depends on claims in your area. Just got my renewal 3 year NCB 1.3l engine for me and the wife £828. Bought new car at weekend 3l group 19 shopped around and cheapest so far £833. Cheap eared for me used to be direct line, then admiral and co, now time to swap again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweep Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 22 year old at work, hers is £900 for a corsa. Is that more than the cars worth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy86 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 27 but had an accident 2 years ago that wiped my NCB down to 1 year. Metro taxi c@"ts. £800 + seems more value for money on our new car than a little Suzuki swift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no balls Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Is that more than the cars worth? It's a 57 plate so I'd say not. It is a shame for the young uns who want to build up their no claims but fuck um, as long as mine stay low Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 After watching Daybreak this morning where 17 year olds are getting quoted anything from £3K-£16K, I'm gutted for my daughter who is all set to start learning. Heard there's a few schemes that help reduce the insurance (pass plus, time curfews, etc)... but seems extortionate. Lad on Daybreak said that he had mates driving without insurance. £3K insurance vs £300 fine for not having any.... no brainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 He'd think so if he has an accident. Said that car was only worth £400. But I know what you are saying. You can see why they are taking the risks. Said they'd had a drop-off of 20% this year on youngsters taking up driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
