Tesco Car Insurance

Whacky

So ive been looking around and i have a quote of £500 from Tesco

Main driver
52 years old
Licence over 20 year
1 claim (Hit by other person) june2010
annual mileage 4000
9 years NCB

Addidtional driver
son
23 years old
Licence 5 years
0 NCB

Ford fesita 1.25 petrol hatchback 2007


Does this sound right for that price..?
Sounds too good to be true
Or am i missing something
I was expecting £1500 as there is a young driver first time insurance.
Is anyone using this insurer would you recommend them?

Insurance quotes are like pick a number out of the hat, Thats your premium.

Got quotes from the comparison websites? That will soon tell you if its competetive.

I looked at the tesco insurance online & cover was rubbish, Way too much excess.

If your buying the car & insuring it for the young one, FRONTING.

The policy can get cancelled if they suspect it.

Main driver is a 52 with a large company car, They will question why he goes out and
buys a small hatchback.

I was with Tesco for a number of years, wife still is..

I used them once to claim when a third party hit me and drove off.. They are fine, the repairs that my car went to were rubbish and royally screwed up the repair. I complained and was told to choose my prefered repairer, I did, they sent someone to inspect my car.. all agreed and was fixed again..

Although not happy about the 1st repair, I'm guessing that they are just using a list so don't know them directly (interestly the repair company went bust soon after). Otherwise no real complaints. Only left because I found somewhere cheaper oftering the same cover..

Wife phones them up at renewal time and gets them to match her cheapest quote.


In terms of excess mine was 250 quid..
