Just thought I should share this, I was about to go and purchase a zed about two weeks before somebody got there before I did and bought it! I was saving quotes so that if the purchase was sucessfull I could send payment on my phone and drive it back.
A little about me, I'm 24, male, 5yr ncb (6 in a month or two).
Quotes were coming back around the £400 mark from most insurers, however Miss Exec kept asking if I could add her on the policy, which is only fair as I've been borrowing her car whilst I'm car-less.
So I added her on, which bumped quotes to £600. Her stats are similar to mine, age, ncb etc. Anyhow I looked further at variables I could legally tweak. I hadn't changed relationship to civil partner/ co-habitee! so I did, quotes came back at £350
With further experiments I took her off and added my mother, 25yr+ ncb, this increased it quite drastically. Needless to say she isn't staying on.
So make some tweaks if you can people, if you have moved in with a partner they could well lower insurance!
P.S - this quote is cheaper than what it would cost me to drive a 160hp BMW 320d
(I use this to justify why I want a 3.5l sports coupe)
