flukey-lukey Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Ive just done a quote for me on their website, i'd be 22 with 4 yrs no claims and 3 points, came back at £2200 fully comp with £1000 excess!!! and £1354 TPFT not that good lol edit: so how come you can get it for £6oo and odd ?? not fair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 I'm 24, nearly 25, with 7yrs NCB, 0 points - and they quoted me well into 4 figures for an import. And thats in a town, decent security, driveway parking. EDIT: Just done another quote online (last one was a month ago) and price came back as £700 FC. Only thing i changed is "year you purchased the car" - i put it so i had it a year. Can't see that making a blinding bit of difference mind. I'm actually VERY impressed at the price! It DEFINATELY wasn't that cheap last time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flukey-lukey Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 ^^^ yeh it just doesn't make sense, i hate insurance companies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambo Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Are you sure they have quoted you for a mk4 and not a mk3? I've made that mistake before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jdbecks Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 nope mk4 def.... i went through money supermarket.com hahaha so back to my original questions peeps lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Mine was deffo a mk4 now - its less than 1/2 the price i've been quoted elsewhere. But i expect modifications to push the price right up.... As for running costs, depends on how you drive i suppose. From a quick google and search, motorway driving will give: Supra = approx 24mpg mr2 turbo = approx 30mpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Only thing i changed is "year you purchased the car" - i put it so i had it a year. Can't see that making a blinding bit of difference mind. i think it can after all lots of new owners (regardless of previous no claims record) have a mishap early on.......i suspect most/all of us will have had scares within a month or two of first ownership...... I must be bored but i just did a online quote with Elephant and the quote came out approx 10% less if i just changed the yr bought from 2007 to 2004...... NB if you are insuring a new sup, maybe you are going from an NA to TT, its worth mentioning your previous experience especially with the more clued up/personal touch type brokers eg Sky, A-plan etc........

Guest jdbecks Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 looks like im going to sell my mr2 turbo and get a supra tt how much is a good condition 93 - 95 supra tt go for? is the market in the air like the mr2 ones at the moment?

Gaz6002 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 It's all about experience of driving high performance cars. Thats what helped me get my TT at 22 years old, as I had the MR2T for ages beforehand. It looks good if you have owned decent cars before.
