I am really curious as to what other micra owners are paying for insurance.

Like this

Age: 19
Model: k11/shape
Engine size:1.0
NCD:8
Named driver(yes/no): yes
Paying: £852

What are you paying? Personally myself as main drive i was getting covered at £3000+ which i did not see a viable for the micra so became named and drive it on weekends and dad drives it rest of the time.

I seriously would not pay more then £1300 for insurance on a micra, I'd rather wait untill it is lower (next year possible) what about you?

Age: 19
Model: K11/L
Engine size:1.0
NCD: 2
Named driver(yes/no): No - main driver, registered owner & keeper
Paying: £650

Assuming NCD = No Claims Discount, how can you have 8 years when you are only 19?

Im quite lucky for insurance I have my dad as a main driver and Im named.

Age: 20
Model K11 Inspiration
Engine Size: 1.3
NCD 20+ on my dad 0 for me

His insurance a month was £28 a month, putting me as a named driver made it up to £39 so I just pay £11 a month. I think i did a dummy quote on the internet and it was £1400.

I think most people will answer this question with too much, I pay more on insurance than my car is worth, it'd probably be cheaper to pay the fine for no insurance than to pay for insurance.

So true and i think that's everyone's thoughts,why should i pay 1k per year when i could drive without insurance and get a fine less than half that. Ridiculous.

Who are you with?? I must live in the crappest area in england because i am now 19 with 0 no claims and i am unable to get anything sub £1300. Thats why i am sticking to named driver until around 20-21 possibly.

Wanted to get a PS13 2.0 SR20DE N/A. The car would have cost me £1400 but insurance with myself as main driver at the moment is £2400 so can't really justify it. The car isn't fast or anything but just looks good, i guess i'll wait about 1 year and see how it is then.

It's not about expecting to cause a crash lol, some peoples cars cost more than their excess so would like them repaired in the event of a crash.

For comparison I just did two quotes on an Almera GTi
Fully comp with £250 voluntary excess: £660
Third Party, Fire and Theft: £545

The difference isn't really that much these days, and once when I did fully comp the price actually went down!

I'm sure when your SR20 conversion is done you'll want fully comp with Sky Insurance to cover all those mods!

It's more about the piece of mind than anything else, and for only another £100 you get your car fixed too should the unthinkable happen!

Yeah i'd want fully comp on my car when it's done, as the value will shoot right up, however at present, my third party policy has no excess!

When i was hit by the drunk driver, they gave me the car back. They said if i was fully comp, i'd have had to of bought it back! and they gave me hardly any money for it in the first place.

Fully comp on a cheap car - waste of money.

I'm on about K10's though! Insurance wise, they're worth about £300 tops. Newer K11's and older it's worth it, the same for your car, but anything with no real value isnt

But isn't your health worth it?

What's health got to do with being fully comp? If your not responsible for the crash, your medical bills would be covered by the other party!
