How the hell can they justify them prices?! their saying im going to write the cars off in excess of 4 times a year!

I can honestly see now why some people think "Fcuk it, id rather pay the fine for not havign any"

@ the £500 excess on the Nova. You won't see a penny if you had to claim on that policy!

Thats not how it works You only have to hit one brand new jaguar

Still uber cheap though, god knows how young people actually get on the road nowadays

Whos that with?

They are just daft quotes tbh.

Have a look round for some realistic prices.

My 1st year was around £1200, pretty much same circumstances/car as your nova...

[daverobson]

i paid £1,700 for my 1l two years ago.
i know a lad who is paying 2,200 on same model ect...

the prices are goin up every year. in a few years it will be like 4k for a small car
