RE: FN-FORUM: Ot: More car advice

I'd just like to emphasise the 'Insurance companies are evil' - got my =
first car yesterday (Corsa 1.4 SRi) after passing my test 3 weeks ago, =
and it's unbelievable how much they wanted to charge for it! Thought I'd =
hit the jackpot with a =A3690 quote online from endsleigh, but upon =
ringing up this doubled to =A31200 when they asked how long I'd had my =
licence - there wasn't even on option for licence duration on the site!

Another wouldn't even give me a quote for a SRi model with a < 1 year =
licence.

I also noted on one site that there was a saving of =A350 if you stated =
your occupation was a computer programmer, rather than a 'computer =
analyst'.

Possibly the best however was trying to register the car under the =
sheffield post code - nearly double than that of a derby postcode!

Arrrgh.

anyway? ;)

Insurance companies are evil.. :)
