[Lee1980]

I have been on a bike for 8yrs have 5 yrs ncd. I am doing my car test soon for 3rd time and hope its 3rd time luckylol

Are they any insurers that take into account my bike experience/ncd as the prices im getting are silly for a car when i can insure my k1200r for half!

Or any insureres that do both car n bike as mine is up for renewal end of Sept.

Perhaps its just a case of first year car insurance is expensive, i know if i had licence for a year it drops quite a bit even if youve not driven and have no ncd seems mad!!

Cheers

Carol Nash and Norwich Union do car and bike policys if that helps.

Bike insurance ncb etc doesn't count for anything if you want to insure a car unfortunately as i found out

can i suggest elephant.co.uk i got my car insured with no ncb for under £250 fully comp

Have you told them its your 3rd attempt to pass your test?

[Lee1980]

thanks guys will try them all

Very funny andy lol, last time was so bad i only got 2 minors and he failed me on he reckons me not stopping properly at a stop junction, seemed as though he was trying to find something to fail me on its his word against mine.

some one i know in the know also said if they pass to many they have to fail some as mine was at the end of the week to! oh well 3rd time lucky lol

and i got the chance of 1.8 scirroco to drive foc to but seems the engine size makes it high price to insure!!!
