Hi all, just started driving my Mk2 XR2 and was wondering what everyone else has been quoted?

I'm 20 years old, currently insured with Elephant.co.uk, have 2 years no claims and paying £710 for a 10 month policy with bonus accelerator.

Car is completely standard, garaged, 5,000 annual milage, with my mum and dad as named drivers and a valuation of £1500 on my vehicle.

I have declared one accident which wasn't my fault and no no-claims bonus lost but this pushed the price up by £50 or so..

All feedback welcome! Might even help us get a cracking deal next year..

Many thanks!

 

Okay, through Elephant, your car is worth £300 regardless of what you quoted the value as @ inception. They go on market value from Glass' Guide.

10 month policy with "accelerator" is worthless as well as most other companies will not recognise the bonus. I have seen this a few times with other people.

Your best bet would have been to use a specialist company that puts the car onto "agreed value". The XR2 is actually classed as a classic car now, so insurance is dirt cheap.

An example: my Escort cabriolet is a 1986 model and insured for £4.5k FC. I pay £141 for me and the other half. It will cost £20 next year to add the Sierra 2000e as that will be 20 years old.

So, 2 car for £161 with a combined agreed value of £7k.

If you are within your 14 days grace period, look around quickly and see if you can get on a classic policy

 

I used to be with Heritage with my '89 XR2 on an agreed value, limited mileage, fully comp policy. Very good company, might be worth getting them to give you a quote.
