Been driving a PH for a month or so now and really think its the job for me. So i've been looking about getting quotes ect to buy and plate my own car rather than paying £160 a week to use the company one. Got a good deal on a 56reg Vectra CDTi all the extras blah blah blah. Phoned the LA who have no problem plating the car. however I phoned swinton to insure the thing and they quoted me £5,590. I'm 25, got 7 years normal car no claims, clean license and no criminal convictions. WTF? Can anyone recommend somewhere that won't require me to re-mortgage my house? |

Try our links page; http://www.taxi-driver.co.uk/links.htm and this months trade mags; http://www.taxi-driver.co.uk/phpBB2/vie ... php?t=6445 Spend a day if need be ringing around, but in time it will go down. 
There are a couple of companies that now do weekly payment, so even that might be an idea for the short term.

Dont know who GPH will be with - to be honest dont think it will make much difference . The old insurance will be quite high any way but try Laurie Ross can sometimes haggle a wee bit with them ie such and such is offering me this price etc |

You could use some of your private ncb to reduce your premiums with most companies, split it down the middle and you could save a packet and end up paying about £800 to start off. |

After driving as a PH percentage driver for 2 years and then deciding to buy my own vehicle in November 2006, Swinton quoted me £2,200 for my first year. I found an insurer elsewhere for £1,500 and then Swinton offered to match it, but I still took the other insurers offer. I'm 37 and I've never had any criminal convictions or claims. Unfortunately I didn't have any NCB as I've always been on the wife's insurance as a named driver for 12 years
Just the other day, Swinton called me and offered my second year as £900 with the 1 years NCB I've accumulated. I'm now going to wait for my current insurers renewal and also shop around again. I'm still expecting Swinton to add a 1 on that figure
