Also - I know it's hard but if you can, pay it in full as when you pay monthly they charge horrendous interest. Better to chuck it on a 0% cc.:cool: DFW Nerd Club member 023...DFD 9.2.2007 :cool::heartpuls married 21 6 08 :A Angel babies' birth dates 3.10.08 * 4.3.11 * 11.11.11 * 17.3.12 * 2.7.12 :heart2: My live baby's birth date 22 7 09 :heart2: I'm due another baby at the end of July 2014! :j

What is the car?
If it is high powered or modified that can affect the cost
Although, not very macho, could the other half get a super mini, like a Corsa which is cheap to run and is a low insurance group
It also has a low tax disc each year as well0 -

Its not that ridiculous really. My hubby is 21 and has 7 points on his licence for speeding. His insurance on a J reg old banger is £733, and that is only 3rd party fire and theft. car insurance for certain age groups, convictions and even postcodes vary a lot. Sometimes it doesn't matter how much you shop around, the price is what it is.Official DFW Nerd #148
