Tin Pot Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 My insurance quotes are not great. Anyone aware of an insurer that takes into account the fact Ive driven for four years as a named driver without any claims? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidd Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Usually only the same insurer will accept previous years as a named driver into consideration.Some time ago, Elephant let me keep 4 years as a named driver, on a new policy where I was the main driver. I'm upto about 9 now, which presumably I'll be able to take anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaboknaai Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 What rates have you got, so far? I assume that you have gone through the normal comparison websites? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tin Pot Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Yeah, uh not sure I want to quote precisely. Let's just say I can reduce the premium by £450 if the excess goes from £850 to £3000! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggie Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Any of the Elephant and Admiral group insurers will take into account you being a named driver but it has to have been a consecutive policy. I.E. you can't have changed insurance every year and then get all 4 years NCB just 1 year if you had changed every year. Biggest difference for me was not the NCB it was adding my mum as a named driver! Saved £465 haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tin Pot Posted April 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 All sorted. Had a painful online quote from Admiral, but after talking to them and adding my wife's car for a future multicar the premium was much more reasonable. Nothing like what most of you pay of course, but quite reasonable in my opinion all things considered.Cheers for the advice, got there in the end @SkiddOur current insurers did come around to it and offer to "match" my wife's NCB for my own policy but after doing whatever that took they hit another stumbling block - they wouldn't insure me for a car >3 litres until I'd held a license for 8 years.My insurance quotes are not great.
