Hi,
The insurance is due next week, on my wife's Corsa, which we have had for almost 4 years. The 'value' states £3700, (which is what we paid for it.)
The quote is £185, Comprehensive, My wife and myself as named drivers.
I know that we wouldn't get that amount in the event of an accident, however when I've mentioned it to the insurance broker, they say that reducing the figure wouldn't result in a lower premium.
I, of course am not totally convinced....

The same situation arises with the 75, which is ( on paper), still valued at £3000. I've had it for 5 years. (Insurance due in September.)
As a matter of interest, we do less than 3000 miles per year in the Rover and under 2000 miles per year in the Corsa.

Your opinions please.

Regards, Malc.
