[tjbaker91]

I have just passed my test, so rang up Quinn and told them, insurance has gone up by £1000 on a frickin 1.1 forte, now £1600!

Has any one had this problem aswel, or is it just the norm? am i guna have to fork out nuva £100 quid a week?

cheers x

[Funsize]

I just got insured today and it's £1184 regardless of what type of licence it is.

[Scattle]

Mine went up aswell, when I passed my test by about £400 quid, not happy but you have to do it.

[J-Reid]

well done on passing mate, yee its the norm for insurance to go up after passing, well ya wont have to pay £100 a week as that would be a quote of £5200 lol.

[adr1ch]

i went with quinn paid 986 as a learner tpft and when i passed it went up by 1032 thats bad for a 1.1 i think
paying 1529 with churchill fully comp now. :)

[saxo_asa]

My insurance didnt go up after passing. That was fully comp with Quinn on a '51 Zetec S

[Ocego_VTR]

I didnt insure a car before my full licence but I have had quotes at £4k on a VTR so am going on mum and dads insurance for financal reasons. BEFORE anyone says fronting etc i don't drive like a dick and will be doing low miles anyway

[Danr]

Alot of people have had this. Have a little shop around but the chances are Quinn will be pretty decent even at that price.

[shieldy]

thats why i insured my car after i passed lol.... insurance companys rip you off no matter what thats what they are their for to make money

[Smithy_Saxo]

Yep your right there its unreal :wacko:

[Dez]

all insurance companies increase the price when you pass. As stupid as it sounds you will now be a higher risk as you will be driving on your own without an experienced driver next to you - you will also be driving alot more which when common sense prevails you increase the risk of having an accident - therefore increasing the risk of your insurance company having to pay out.

It really is the norm im afraid

[tjbaker91]

thanks for all the replies. still shoppin about but looks like ill have to stick with it for a year, VTR next year will cost me about 1300 so tht looks like a good shout, gives me summit to save up for.

[Hannah]

My insurance didn't go up. Can't remember if I was with Quinn or Elephant though. £1k seems a bit steep though.

[tjbaker91]

i might have to ring dem up again, see what ma policy exactly states, ive from fooked up somewhere and told them summit tht had boosted it :S

[ashyboyo]

im 19 ive had 1 crash in a renault megane write off came through 50/50 had a licence for a year and a half, co-op quoted me second year on my own £725 fully comp i was buzzin no years no claims and on a saxo vtr 02!!

[Rhea21]

My insurance didnt go up when i passed i was with capricorn!

[JRC1]

Quinn are shit. I really don't know why people go with them (probably cos half of the people don't realise quinn charge an extra grand when you pass!)

I passed like 2 months ago and went with Direct Line. They didn't want any more £ once i'd passed either. Cost me £1,600 but that's on a 1.4 Furio :y:

[Liam_]

Quinn are notorious for whacking the prices up when you pass - mine went up £700. :wacko:

I'm now with Bell who are very reasonable provided you can pay the fee in full - the charges for paying monthly are mental!

[stingerps2]

yer i hate that paying back few hundred pounds back to them

[JEEMO]

Mine went to £2500 on a 1.1 But got rid of it and Fully comp on a 1.6 Zetec S now.

[Tommy-S]

im 20 1ync been passed for a year..my insurance is 500£ going down to 420£ my birthday in august.but buying a vtr soon so its going up to 1200£ when iv bought that!

but those prices are abit steep on a 1.1 imo.!

[Tommy-S]

ok just done a quote.. for when im 21.
green insurance 1053.53£ fully comp for a year on my own 1ync.

added my mom as a adish driver. norwich union 932.02£ fully comp
i think il be adding my mother tbh lol and i can still build up my own ncb :)

[Ocego_VTR]

the CIS are good with saxos.

[Jim-Bob]

quinn always double ur policy price wen u pass...im a named driver wiv directline payong 1100 and it wont go up wen i pass, but online it will only cost 800 quid they scammed my mum on the fone lol

james

[DJDannyB]

direct line stay the same, my mates with them. just sent them a letter saying he had passed

[Claire-VTR]

I got my VTR a few months after passing my test and quinn insured me in my own name tpft for £976 which i thought was pretty reasonable sayin i was 17. Now a year on with a years no claims its now £689. Not bad like?

I think Quinn give the cheapest prices around, well certainly in N.Ireland, but apparently when it comes to payin out theyd do anything to get around it?

[Daveclarke16]

Can Beat That, Was With Quinn.. For £1600 On Provisional. Told Them I Passed And They Wanted Another £3500. And Thats On My Dads!!!

[furio-james]

got a quote on a 106 gti 1200 and im 17 haha! named driver with my mum

[tom130691]

i didnt insura as learner now i passed cant get under 2k on a 1.1

[Billy-Boy-Racer]

Omg i hate quinn ! they done the same to me !

Was low on provisional so im like yes sorted ! and then i changed it when i passed they wanted an extra £1100 ! and i got a 1.1 forte aswell ! not good i couldnt of changed becasue i would of lost £1000 so i stuck with it

[Saxo_Scott]

Direct line do not let you mod your car.

I was with them on my 1.1 and I was paying around 800 as a named driver when I first passed.

Had to change to Quinn when I got the furio so I could add them mods.

[tom130691]

on ya own?

[Rik1254]

mine went down by about £250, then a further £250 with the addition of passplus

learning - £1200
passed - £950
after passplus - £700

this was on a 1993 1.1 106

[columadboi]

some quotes are nothing compared to mine lol i think it depends on where you live tbh i live in london and for a 1.1i stateside its £1800 and im 17 i think thats a lot!!

[dispin]

Nice one on passing your test but I don't understand why you did not find out how much your insurance would be once you've passed. Its like buying a car without an insurance quote and then when you get your quote you complain about how much it is.

[edwcorst]

lol ... quite shocking :) my first insurance was 1400 on a furio

[Daveclarke16]

lol ... quite shocking :) my first insurance was 1400 on a furio
