I've just insured through LV as my 7 day insurance is running out. They didn't come up as the cheapest originally but the others elephant, esure, Admiral, Diamond all wanted to charge for factory fitted options, LV states they are not considered a modification.
As a single guy I find it stupid adding a second driver makes it drop by £100. So I've added my ex as a named driver. |

I'm not quite sure Mark, I paid an additional amount to swap to the 330, but I would say it is going to be £1000 if it were for a full year.
I do use the car for business, so not SD&P only, but have NCD 5 and over 40, no points, no convictions, no nothing......oh and I'm male which should entitle me to a lower rate now right? The biggest joke is Aviva telling me this model is extra difficult to fix so incurs an additional £250 excess......she then said this additional excess is only payable for an own fault claim, to which I said "Isn't any excess?" I would be very interested in hearing from the other M Sport owners or non M Sport 330D/335i owners with Aviva if they have also been hit with this additional excess BS. |

Definitely a load of BS re. the excess, what's the point in guessing if they don't know, with something as serious as insurance?!

I think I paid £498 in the end with LV, late 30's, business use, £200 voluntary and £200 compulsory excess but I do have full (over 10 years) NCD and no claims/points.
I had to add a second driver to make it drop £100 as I mentioned. |

When I turned 40 my premiums plummeted..before that when I had the porsche I started off paying £1500 annually with £500 excess Now I have over 15 years NCB Protected and a spotless license. However, I think the bulk of the cost is linked to the post code where the car resides over night...

This is what really happened the year I was born... Yep no new XBOX games!! Soviet missile bases detected in Cuba; President Kennedy demands their removal. The confrontation is the closest the U.S. and U.S.S.R. ever come to war. Crisis is resolved when Soviets agree to remove Cuban missiles in exchange for removal of U.S. missiles in Turkey. Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann executed in Israel U.S. establishes semi-permanent military presence in Vietnam Pope John XXIII convenes the Second Vatican Council, which will modernize many practices of the Catholic Church when it concludes three years late And believe it or not Phil Knight develops the first Nike running shoe |

Aviva drove me nuts. They were so much more expensive than LV .... by £350 + all their excesses!
I contacted LV and put a second driver on and got an additional discount. Now I pay £470 approx, £0 voluntary excess, only their compulsary excess, with all their bits 'n pieces except their Roadside Assistance. 4 years NCD (missed the 5 years by a month) and no claims for 4 years. Clean licence. It's ok for Central London. Hate buying Insurance.

Oh dear... After reading all that I am not looking forward to having to troll the internet looking for insurance when I get mine on the 28th!! (Cant wait!)
Currently have an Admiral multicar quote with myself (7 years protected NCD and IAM Emergency Driver, and my partner with 8 years protected NCD and full business for us both, both less than 30 and both on her 2012 Fiesta Zetec too) and when I rang them a few months back to enquire about a rough cost when looking at the car, they advised me it was an extra 100 quid for the change of policy and change of car... All in around 750-800 quid... Not bad I thought. Still have a good 10 months on the policy so I would presume that the increase for the year would only be around 120 quid from a 1.6 Astra to the 320d... They did whack a compulsory excess of 125 quid tho... They did ask about optional extra's and I had a slight discussion with the woman and told her everything coming on the car is factory fitted from the manufacturer and she advised me the only cost option from those I listed was the parking sensors as they make the bumpers more expensive to repair (and less likely to damage??) I think it depends on the individual you talk to it seems...

It's also part of a staff policy..mrs... Just my standard excess I have it as standard 350.. Everything is protected legal cover the works. If I had left it on the single policy they wanted £400. For that I would have moved on as I had quotes for £300 from other companies..
