  Clio 172 Cup
Got my Cup at age 26 and paid approx £500 for insurance. Now paying under £200!

Wow!
I'm 37 with 14 years no-claims, low insurance area and I pay £320.
Is that fully comp, protected no-claims etc etc?

Yeah, fully comp, max no-claims etc. No breakdown cover, however - not required. That was with Bell.

I just got a new quote from sky insurance. Originally my renewal letter said 890 third party! which i what I paid last year. I have now 4 years no claims and am 25, so i phoned up and asked why it was so high or if they could do better. They said No this is the best quote we were given. So i went away and got quotes from confused.com and sent it to them via email. They have since matched 504.23 fully comp with no claims protection. So saved almost 400 pounds and got a FC policy just shopping around and showing them they actually didnt try getting me a good quote at all.

Does make it worth your while to search each year for better prices, because the insurance companys are not there to help you.

23 when I got the 172... pay £460 FC

How do you all swing these premiums?? I'm 23 with no convictions/points/anything!! And cheapest I can get is £730 fc!! And at the mo since I changed my car on my current policy and I carried on with the policy its about £960 fc per year!!!!!!!!!! Thought insurance would be cheaper then this at 23 :(

I believe there are hidden factors as to why people get such low premiums, because i live in a great area with zero crime, have the car in a drive, 4 years no claims, and im over 25 and still pay 500 quid FC....not sure how else i can really be a better person insurance wise!

Ok now seriously, where are you getting these prices from?? Because I really am getting bent over and seen to with my premium........


age 23, 5 years no claim discount, clean licence, good area. £500 fully comp. I also insure a van with them and get 25% off the van insurance :evil:

I had to wait until I was 21 to get insurance at a reasonable cost on a car with a high insurance group.

Dont wish your life away!!!!!!!

If i could be 18 again id happily drive a 1.2!


Your right, when i was your age Rob's172 took me out for a drive in his 172. Id not been in a clio renaultsport before. Fook me i thought it was the best thing sincle sliced bread, 120mph on backroads and id not felt torque like it. I was 18 and was adament i was to have one.


Im now just short of 20. (2 weeks left). It dawned on me a while ago that ive actually got the rest of my life ahead of me to buy fast cars. I upgraded from my 51 plate 1.2 16v clio expression to an 05 plate 1.2 16v dynamique just over a year ago now in an attempt to just chill out and be patient. If id of got a 172 id of been skint, no going out round town, wouldnt have met half the people i know today either.



Im aiming for a 197 or a civic type-r by the time im 21. I actually couldnt give two s***s now if i get one or not. It deends what i can afford at the time. I am in no rush.



Just stick with the 1.4 until your 21 when insurance will be underneath the £1000 mark. In the mean time, save.





Its like a lot of people said to me - dont skint yourself for the sake of a car.

I was 30 when I got my 172, so insurance wasn't really a problem! I'm 35 now and insurance is only £300 on the R26.
 
£330 on the 182 at 29 with points and 6 years no claims, I have the misfortune of having a penis which obviously makes me more of an insurance risk.
