Cheaper Car Insurance? My Ass!

Friday, March 30th, 2007

Well yesterday my dad was looking at renewing car insurance, we live in Liverpool and I am under 25. However a few years ago we got a quote for about £750 all inclusive but when my dad checked again it was over £2500 which worked out at £50 a week, that is about treble. In over 20 years my dad has claimed on insurance once for about £100 and he isn’t even shore the claim went through. That would work out at about £6000 for someone with no claims bonus, the car we drive is a Toyota Yaris 5 door 1.2 liter less than 6 months old and brand new is worth about £8000. Will someone please point out the logic of paying almost what the car is worth in insurance? My theory of why it is so expensive is because the companies are having to compensate for people without insurance but is it any wonder when they are this extortionate?!?

A Little Realisation

I have just been to see 300, although it was a good movie its not what this post is about. This post is about something I realized on my way home. I was walking from the station because the traffic was heavy and it would have been faster and it gave me time to think. I have been thinking about one of my friends and the way he makes comments about another of my friends, and that hurts me. On my walk I also realized that I was making comments about someone else who left our group and even though she left us that still does not mean I can do it. What ever becomes of my thoughts I don’t know but I am going to try to cut down on my (not so) smart comments and quick whip cracks because they might be gnawing at someone else.

Oh! What a feeling!

Today I have been in a good mood, I’ve had a smile on my face since I got home from university. I really don’t remember the last time I felt like that. I had a suspicion what was giving me the feeling and I think that has been confirmed. Shame about where I got the title for this post, it was used as the Toyota slogan in the 80s but I only know that because it was on Pimp my Ride.

Its official
