CJRamze Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Afternoon. a couple of years ago I would bounce between Admiral and Adrian Flux year on year as the quoted figures always rotated. My partner contacted you today and attempted to get insurance on the three cars we have (One being a 350z) She was told in no uncertain terms that as I had no previous experience of a car with the engine size of a 350z I was classed as an inexperienced driver and as such it would force my policy up. Just to state, This made the final figure £1400 which is £600 more expensive than Admiral. My partner explained that I'd always driven performance hot hatches in excess of 250hp, however was told because I'd been driving a Diesel as my main car for the last year I was inexperienced... Is there any truth in this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Yup, it's not unheard of. Tbh it makes sense, but they do risk losing trade because of it. That may be trade they don't want due to the higher risk, of course! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricey Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Yeah I think Sky apply that theory as well but I'm sure they'd look at the other cars you've driven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJRamze Posted July 13, 2014 Author Share Posted July 13, 2014 I did find it strange because this isn't the fastest car I've insured! Anyone know how long until I become... Experianced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
