Well some bad news everybody....

[harry1]

lol, i did pass plus havt noticed a diff in insurance to date. first car fiesta 1.1 1200 quid

I've been thinking about pass plus, some people say they get discounts of a few 100 and some say no discount. Harry, did your insurance company support pass plus as they all offer different discounts

[harry1]

i dunno lol, but since i have tried with various other places that say they do and no differnt so i have lost faith in it,

[[DW]Cougho]

pass plus for me would save around 120 quid a year but then i factored in the "Can i be bothered? factor" and the price of actually doing it and decided..... nah.

Oh yeah and 1.6 focus'es FTW! (not biased..... honest)

although could do with more powah!

Indeed, even I managed to boot the throttle out of corners :S

They are nice cars to drive, I must admit. Build quality is better than ever tbh

Pass Plus I've booked up, and considering the car I'm looking to get insured on (v70) I need all the help I can get

[harry1]

v70 shouldnt be too bad m8. but yer not the cheapest first car lol. but at least ur rents dont drive skylines and m5's

edit mine dont either but im just saying

I've done some research on pass plus, based on group 1 insurance.

No experience, 0yr NCB - £1070
No experience, 0yr NCB, Pass Plus - £910 ish
1 year named driver - £750 ish
1 year named driver, Pass Plus - £690 ish

Seeing as i've already got insurance (Dad as main driver), i won't bother with pass plus seeing as i'll only save about £60 next year. The quotes are from quinn direct

Nah, should be a bit more reasonable than dad's boxster anyhow...

With the Pass Pluss, most insurance company class it separately to experience, so its Licence + Pass Plus (the same idea as Licence + IAM etc) and you get the reduction that way. I'm yet to phone the insurance company and find out how much it will cost tho
