Insurance Group 20

IVE JUST HAD A INSURANCE QUOTE FOR A 192 RX8 AS IVE ORDERED SO I THOUGHT ID CHECK. THIS IS A QUOTE FORM MAZDA THEYVE SAID INSURANCE GROUP 20, SO WHAT HAPPENED TO THE INSURANCE GROUP 15E AND 16E THAT WAS ANNOUNCED 2MONTHES AGO AND MAZDA SAID THAT IT PEOPLE UNDER 30 WOULD HAVE DIFFICULTY GETTING INSURED... NICE IM WELL ANNOYED. IM 24 AND NO ACCIDENTS AND THE QUOTES OVER A GRAND.I ORDERED THE CAR HOPING IT WOULD BE REASONABLE I DONT MEAN LIKE A MICRA BUT JUST REASONABLE.....

Jayzz, there's a thread on the european forum somewhere on insurance. Basically dont write the car off from an insurance quote from Mazda. The Mazda insurance sucks - try Egg.

Or try 'e-sure' provided you have a full no claims bonus. They're very good. Different to Mazda costs that's for sure.

Sounds like another Mazda UK gaff because only a month or so ago they were celebrating on their website the fact that the RX8 is a 15 / 16. You have been well and truly shafted. Worth a call I think. My quotes have been really competitive, try Admiral.

Or try elephant.co.uk (better than egg if you don't live out in the sticks).

Have a look at this thread http://www.rx8forum.com/showthread.p...threadid=5612.

£399 from Directline was my best quote at the time.

Also look at this site http://www.abi.org.uk/carinsurance/search.asp it will confirm the ratings.

elephant is the internet arm of admiral. They are generally cheaper than admiral. Im with admiral i will be changing. They wanted somewhere near 900 quid for the rx8 while esure and egg were around 500. My IS 200 is costing me around 750 which i will be changing when its due for renewal.

(churchill are also very very good.)

Also, try Direct Line as they provided me with a very competitive quote.

Wouldn't worry. Admiral are very good as has been said above. Got a quote for £450.

They also quoted only £560 for a Corvette:D

Oh, the dilema!!!

Yeah, If I had a corvette I'd be thinking of crashing it and claiming on the insurance too!
