Default Re: Ten Grand Insurance Mindboggler

I had a quote of £9999.00 for a Gixer thou a year or two ago - as mentioned above, it's simply the equivalent of declining to quote.

It was by far the least daft quote I've had though. The two that stand out were for a non-running 1983 CG125 and a Ducati 900 Monster. The CG was two years ago after I'd had an accident and a spot of legal trouble - Ebike quoted me 2300 quid. The Ducati was back when I was about 23 and had just flogged a load of share options so I was looking to buy something new for about 7 grand. The only, and I mean *only* quote I could get was from Ducati's own insurance scheme, who would only quote full comp, and they wanted 8 grand.

It puts the 1300 quid I paid to insure a new ZXR400 a couple of years later in perspective really.
