insurance question
Discussion
Hi folks.
I'm weighing up the pro's and con's of AM ownership and one of the considerations is of course insurance.
So who would you recommed for a quote and what should a reasonable amount cost?
I was given a card by a chap at a JCT garage so phoned for a quote on a DB9 at around the 40k mark.
I'm 38 and think i tick all the right boxes to get a good quote so i was surprised when the quote came back at 1963.
Any offers on what i should expect without being bent over.
Thanks.

That might be a good quote! It's an expensive-to-repair car with a good turn of performance and increasingy owned by young hooligans
Try Locktons, the Aston Owner's club insurers, they put far more effort into looking at your particular circumstances.
I have a classic fleet policy with ClassicLine and think my DB9 was about 600 for 5k miles. 37yr old with 6 points!

Muffster, try Locktons, they've been a long term recommended insurer for many on here.
I also have tried Admiral multi car but after 12 months they wanted double the premium.
I'm 35 and have 4 cars on the Locktons policy and I only paid about 1200-1500 (can't remember exactly)last year.
It's renewal time next month for me so it'll be interesting to see if they've jumped up again.
hope that helps

I just renewed mine on the Monday just gone with Admiral on a multicar policy, was the most competitive quote by miles Have used Chris Knott & Adrain Flux in the past.
A great response!!!
I asked about a tracker, i've got one on my RR but the guy said it doesn't make a difference unless the car is over 50K!
Some of those numbers look pretty good. Yes it's bound to attract expensive premiums but i'm 38, full NCB clean licence, limited mileage etc, etc.
I'm quite impressed with the info on the multicar policys. But how do they work exactly. What i mean is there is about a 6 month gap between the rewewals on my car and the wifes. So how do you bridge the gap so to speak, to renew the two together and then get a multicar policy?
Thanks.

Aviva have told me they will cancel my other two policies with no admin charges and any reimbursement due so that all three cars will start at the same time on the multi-car policy. Fortunately all three cars are already currently insured with them which simplifies the situation.I asked about a tracker, i've got one on my RR but the guy said it doesn't make a difference unless the car is over 50K!

You put the first due car on (I read that as yours)and include your other cars on the application, including the date their current insurance expires. Just before that date you get another letter from Admiral as a reminder, then that car joins your policy. It joins with the number of days left to complete a full year for the first car, thus all cars on the policy expire at the same time, even though they wil have joined it at different times in the first year. The more cars you ave on, the bigger the discounts.I'm quite impressed with the info on the multicar policys. But how do they work exactly.

It's very good how it is managed, but still check your prices every year in case they get complacent and think they can just charge you what they like when all cars are on the policy.
