Derek_ZR Posted March 15, 2007 Author Share Posted March 15, 2007 Your postcode can make a massive difference, everything's bloody expensive in London! And you can't even drive that fast 'cause of all the potholes and double parking! Try driving on the M8 everyday - voted either the worst or 2nd worst motorway in Britain just the other week. People would think you were drunk the way you drive if you try and avoid all the craters in the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkfish Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Yeah Derek, the M8 is a piece of sh*t. It's horrifying. I'm lucky, I do the M77 every day. Early morning then usually evening after the rush. Fantastic road until you get to the average speed cameras between Kilmarnock and Ayr.

Derek_ZR Posted March 15, 2007 Author Share Posted March 15, 2007 Ended up going with Direct Line. They were £2 dearer than Privilege my current insurer but the breakdown cover that gets you home or to your chosen destination was cheaper at £46.

Removed Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 breakdown cover is better found via Autoaid. £32 a year and that's for any car you drive and if you are married it's for both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyC Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 24 no ncd no points 1200 w/ admiral , on renewal at 25 w/ 1 yr ncd 890Thats good to know that the magic 25 brings it down a fair bit! Unfortunately not these days mate, it only really drops by a decent chunk at age 30. I'd say the biggest factor on that drop was the 0 no claims to 1yr.
