It's not specific to the classic insurers - this is common practice with every insurance company I've ever come across.

They put your renewal up in the hopes that they can make more money out of you.

As others have mentioned: shop around, contact the insurer direct to ask them.

Unfortunately you have to play the game :roll:

£163 for fully comp on agreed value of 25k sounds reasonable to me.

 

[RICH-I-AM]

25k :shock:
Is it gold plated?

 

[Trikky2]

25k :shock:
Is it gold plated?

I have seen a couple of top condition bays go for well over 20k recently.

 

[Haveacamper]

Rang Cherished and asked for quote...........
Looking for Fully Comp,25k value,5k mileage and commuting to single place of work(sunny days only :lol: :lol

Best they could do was max of 3k miles NO COMMUTING TO WORK,garaged,just myself to drive for 180 of my hard earned pounds,even after the forum's 15% discount.

Rang RH and they have quoted 166 notes UNLIMITED MILEAGE,25k value With COMMUTING,breakdown cover,euro cover for 90 days and with the Spouse at no xtra cost :shock: :shock:

My renewal with AF is 163 notes with 25k value,5k miles and commuting and no breakdown cover.

Why didn't I buy my bus years ago !?

 

[jamesurwin]

RH specialist insurance are based in Essex, cal them on 01277 206911.
They are the best Insurance company I have ever come across, I have been with them for 4 years now, just had my renewal come through and it is £83 for me and my wife fully comp with european breakdown cover, bus is valued at £15,000.00.
They are aware it is slammed and running a quicker than stock engine etc.
Its worth more than that just for the european break down cover which I used last week to get me back from Belgium and the service was superb.

 

[Mickey Sam]

Sounds good .
Does that cover daily commuting or is it a fixed mileage ?
Also , are you garaged at night ?

its idiot tax. the insurance companies increase your premiums each year for loyal customers. they do rough calcs based on your risk and likely hood on how much extra you might pay, they then charge you that. if you take that premium and just pay it with out looking round or calling them the next year they add more. till a point you either say too expensive and you either go elsewhere or ring them and then they do you an "amazing deal"

But obviously insurance will go up for legit reason too. i.e. tax that the goverment take goes up, area risk, vehical risk (have baywindows been stolen more in the last months) personal risk (if you made claims, your likely hood to claim, credit history etc etc) so somewhere inbetween would be a good start for something realistic you should expect to pay especially if you have not had any changes in personal circumstances

 

[Hadders]

How do you boys get it below £100? I'm with RH, my renewal has just come through for £124, that's garaged, 5k miles, euro cover etc. I have got a 1955 engine, but they said that didn't matter. I'm 44 and I think a low risk area.

I'll give 'em a bell tomorrow. Maybe it's more risky where I live than I thought

 

[dazza1975]

made some enquires today as mine is due for renewal, currently with Carol Nash and waiting for a call back. Rang RH and they came out alot cheaper than my renewal and cherished. Only problem is when i checked with them to make sure it turns out although its an agreed value as its parked on my driveway it wont actually be at an agreed value :shock: How does that work :?: You can pay for it but you don't get it :?

Anyone else had this issue??
