sobriqueOK, just been checking quotes again.
The best I've got from Admiral is £961 (no business cover).
And then, just to see if it worked, I added my Mum as a Named Driver.
And just that simple change dropped it to £819.
This scares me. I thought extra drivers would _increase_ the insurance...

Date: 2004-06-10 06:08 am (UTC)Most people who put more than one person on their car insurance probably do so because the extra people are actually going to use the car. IOW there is usually some practical difference. You've just discovered how to game the system.
If enough other people discover this sort of thing, the practical difference will be swamped, and the price advantage disappear.
(This is all assuming they really do go on statistical analysis, not their own prejudices!)
