Alright peeps,
Basically I had a couple of accidents on my motorbike and told my CAR insurance company about them this year, and ended up paying £1300 on a 1.0 car which isn't too great really Sad

Do I have to tell the car insurance companies about accidents on a motorbike? I wasn't sure last time round so just told them, but when I renew it I'd really like a car a bit quicker...

Cheers,
Jon

I have points and a BIG accident on my motorbike and never told my car insurer about them. If they don't ask don't bother with it.

Cheers mate, it's A GTi I'm after insurance on, but not my old one, that's gone off to the scrappy because it was too rusted. Got my £200's worth out of it though in the interior, wheels and the bodykit Wink

If I can't insure a GTi, I've got refusals on a GS-SE, the 8v version, which goes alright.. not as well as the twincam though Sad

Yes. They say "have you had any claims or convicitions in the last five years?" so they want to know about all claims or convicitions in that time. Not telling them will make your insurance cheaper but it'll mean you'd be on very dodgy ground if you have a claim made against you, especially if you're a named driver when you're the main/only user of the car and you'd also forgotten to tell them about points on your license.

Fucks sake. So I can't use motorbike ncb on a car (not that I have any anyway), but bike accidents help make your insurance cost more Sad

LOL the motor industry as a whole is very fucked I reckon!!! Have a look for a CX20E or a CX20LET converted Nova that is still down as a 1.1 on the logbook, 2.0 16v power, cheap as chips!! There's lots of them on ebay!! Thumbs Up
