I think it is expensive. These are the costs if you go with Direct Line Car Insurance.

A Third Party 1993 Nissan Micra,

__Male, 18, Student = £1,172.85
Female, 18, Student = £618.45

__Male, 20, Student = £809.55
Female, 20, Student = £600.60

__Male, 50, Student = £290.85
Female, 50, Student = £301.35

__Male, 80, Student = £400.00
Female, 80, Student = £381.15

i have a 1999 nissan micro. best quote so far is 1753 with norwich union
i dont think its too expensive, if you kill someone....<which you are more likely to do when your old/young> its very very expensive so they have to make the money somewhere.

I don't agree with it... but the prices have to be that high to cover the cost of damages caused by your typical boy racer idiots with their 20000000000000 watt subwoofers that require a veritable nuclear power plant in the back just to make them work and drive at 90 in a banged out nova with a silly paint job. Grandads too... with the reaction speeds of a turtle (sorry to have to say it but the elderly are dangerous in cars if their faculties aren't what they used to be - i should know... one of my grandads is dangerous...)

It's quite cheap to kill someone, it's expensive if you crash into and write off a Merc though.

Ironically in insurance terms, youre better off killing someone rather than injuring them badly. How horrible is that :frown:
