Insurance - 2023 renewal 83.50 2024 renewal 530
Good headline?
The context is that the TFS insurance is due at the end of the month. Premium before tax and broker fee was GBP83.50 last year. This year GBP530. The insurance company Markerstudy has stopped offering vehicle insurance and the replacement offered (Highway) doesn't like me parking on the road. Obviously the risk is unchanged but the industry's attitude has changed. I'll find a space off the road somehow and pay GBP150.
That's if I can't find another company- Equity Red Star has been mentioned.
Hagerty provided a park-off-the-road policy for GBP350 which included all sorts of benefits- UK & European recovery, home start and an interesting total loss package- if the car is written off, you get the full agreed payout but get to retain the "wreck" for free !!!
I've cross-posted this in the "Rebody" section on zroadster.org and have had some interesting but depressing replies!
