Streets are so much more secure than garages these days

I had cheaper quotes with £250 excess, TPFT than £1000 excess Third party. They are retarded, you should really phone up to get a quote.

The quotes are calculated using statistics. If Saxos tend be crashed more by people who keep their cars in a garage every night, the price for having it garaged goes up.
That's why it pays you to mess around with the quote - try changing a few things before coughing up. I knocked something like £100 off mine by parking it on street rather than in garage.

Insure it as on the street but keep it in your garage anyway

I have insured it on the street but more than likely I will be parking it behind my dads bimmer and in front of my mums megane coupe.
Totally retarded! I then lowered my excess by £150 and the quote went up £140 so really there's no point there? Extra £140 to save an extra tenner haha

I found the same when I was insuring my Clio. It was over £100 cheaper to park it on the road rather than in my Garage.
When I asked them why this was, my insurance company (Admiral) said this was due to a lot of recent claims by people who parked their cars in garages and it was because they damage their cars mainly all front and rear bumper scrapes/dents or damaging doors when trying to get into and park in their garages , so I can see why it's more expensive.

Lmao! They shouldn't insure retards! If I scraped my car going into the garage I'd either have to be blindo or spark out, it's not exactly hard lol!
But to be honest I had a brand new swift and parked it on the road and some scrote rip my spoiler off!
Now I always park on drive!

Insurance will never make sense to anyone, end of
Its pointless trying to understand it or find logic behind it because you will just end up shooting up a a school with a Magnum 357 and then blowing your own head off!
