... which is only further proof that no one in the insurance industry ever knew their parents!

Hi everyone

proud new owner of a two week old Cayman, basalt black exterior and black leather interior.
Being an old git (54) with no NCB, although no accidents or claims, because I have had a company car for many years, and still do, I expected the premium to be fairly steep although I live in a "low risk" area.
Bearing out one of the other respondents, I got a good price from Saga (around £655) but felt I couldn't live with the shame of being branded a really old git so asked for a rate from Porsche as an afterthought and once I told them that I had a good price from Saga they came in with an even better one. The Porsche insurance is underwritten by Norwich Union, so perhaps I could have got an even better price by going direct but I was running out of time.
It was only after I got the cover note through that I realised they had covered me for business use, which I hadn't requested. The excess is £350. So pretty good, eh?

£860 on a renewal after 1 year with Adrian Flux - better than NU quote.

Still having trouble with track day cover "built it". Anyone had any joy with that?

Later,

Renewed my insurance and it's costing me £750 with Direct Line again.

hi, first year £464, second year £330 over five years no claims, no convictions and £350 excess, 44 years old with me as the only driver this is a second car policy with a limit of 5000 miles a year, direct line, i found if you renew it costs 20% more so i let the policy lapse and started again online then you get the new customer rewards.

Eh!
More-Than wouldn't insure me without a tracker fitted as the car value was over £50k. What value is yours insured for?

Shame too as my 2007 Boxster S quote from More-Than was £380

Did you mention the modifications to the indurance company, Karel? Did the effect the premium?
