E30 Zone

I was wondering if anyone can help me, I was speaking in 1 of the forums the other day and different people were telling me different prices for insurance,

I just wondered if anyone can tell me details of a cheap insurance company... I am only 20 so plz keep that in mind.

Cheers

That's most of them I believe, though always interested in new ones to go on there

The "cheap insurance company" is a myth. You've just got to ring round the lot & see who's best for you... My renewal from direct line was the cheapest by a mile this year!

Look in the "links" section at the top of the page & also bear in mind their policy on mods - direct line for example won't allow any if you're under 25...

IF YOU LOG ONTO AUTOTRADER.CO.UK THEY HAVE A LINK THAT SEARCHES THE DATABASES OF 50 COMPANIES AT ONCE ITS PRETTY COMPREHENSIVE BUT WORKED FOR ME YOU GET QUOTES IN ORDER OF CHEAPNESS

im with adrian flux Ԛ£488 f/comp all mods declared ( but i am 39) not sure what the cut off age is m8 but worth a call

Ive got my 316i with tesco fully comp. with me (im 24) any my g/f (shes 19) and its just over Ԛ£500.00 a year.

It all depends on your circumstances, a company might be cheap for me but not be cheap for you. I mean one company might be cheap for me because of my age (34) but not for you (20) or location etc etc

Confused.com is a good place to start

e-sure were the cheapest for me

depends what car your after mate, im 20 and insuring my M3 is a pain in the a*se!

When i was looking at cars i got the following prices (fully comp)-

e30 320 - Ԛ£730
e30 325i - Ԛ£910
M3 - Ԛ£1320

thought about going for the 325 but then i thought ........ na!

I have my M3 insured by Peter Best and they came up with a blinding figure keeping in mind I use my NCB for my daliy driver!!! Ԛ£324 with agreed value of 8k and annual mile of 5k

have you bought an E30 yet? buy an 'is' 16v but only 1.8 136brake and faster than 320i but cheaper insurance
Im 23 0 ncb but 6 years driving experience, i got a 318is and the 318i in my avatar, i use the 318is daily and norwich union cover me for 600sheets full comp including lowered and stereo mods.

www.confused.com

i'm 25. my 328i sport costs Ԛ£350 all inc comprehensive with the G/Friend who is 24 on annual policy with 7 years NCB. cheapest by far.

although i must point out -
- garaged
- social use only
- 4000 miles per year
- daily driver

hope this helps

swift insurance via autotraders insurance search came up with Ԛ£688 for my 22 year old student son...no no claims and in darkest nottingham..1.6i tpft

325ic 6k miles fully comp on classic Sureterm Ԛ£259 ,,,an old fart

dont ever use elephant

or tesco, sal found out some alarming stuff about these companies

your best bets are direct line, nationwide(churchill) or adrian flux

the less you pay the less you get thats all il say!

just got lowerd as i have now goy 3yrs ncb Ԛ£128 less

I used to be with Peter Best, pretty unbeatable on price, but they have some age restrictions along the lines of 2litres is the maximum engine size for under 25's. (Don't quote me on that, but it's something like that!)

Paying Ԛ£740 now at 25 with 4yrs NCB, car on drive, 5K miles a year.
That's with Flux and all of my extensive list of mods declared

i'm with elephant- i'm 24 with 1 yrs ncb on a 320i fully comp Ԛ£530.

@318-is could you tell me what you've found out about elephant/tesco's
cheers fella

if you crash you have to start a new policy (and pay for!)

Performance Direct are good also..

Actual policy is with Highway tho

:yeahthat:

and u have to pay it off

not good

fair enough i'll bear that in mind and not crash me car then
