Just a quick note to say hello and complement you all on a great site and source of info..

Driving a Mirage 1.6R for a long time, but looking to trade up to its big brother early this year... The insurance quotes are scary for no obvious reason..??

Welcome to the site Misterbishi! The no obvious reason is rip off Ireland and that mitsi's have always been loaded. My first car was a Colt and i was paying 2500 pounds about 8 years ago. Just shop around and check our forums about insurance companies and prices.

I wanted an FTO for years now (love at first site & sound) and I thought my days of paying High insurance had come to an end. I would say Ill be lucky to get cover for under a Grand!
That 123.ie thing is a joke, 4K excess..basically your not fully covered!

Welcome to teh site misterbishi

In terms of insurance,, what are your details? Have you already been quoted on the FTO?

There are a lot of guys on here who would love to be paying about *only* the 1k mark for insurance... me being one of them!

Wouldn't mind seeing another couple of FTOs around Cork though!

Cheers, Most companys wont quote me at all, giving me lame totally unjustified excuses.
My own insurance company (quinn Direct) dont cover the FTO.
The only quote I got was with 123.ie for 9xx.00 with the 4000 excess

I am 29 with full Licence and full NCB

hi misterbishi,tell quinn that they are obliged to quote you and they will give you a fair quote.it worked for me when i switched to an FTO a month ago.be pushy about it but do it in a polite manner

by **misterbishi** » Fri Jan 20, 2006 10:27 am

Thanks for the info, Ill give it a shot, I have been with them for 6 years so they owe me that at least..! ! Ill quit bitching about insurance on this part of the forum as I see there is a reserved section for this

Hi Misterbishi. Give Wrights of Kilkenny a ring and ask for Annemarie, she organised mine and was a lot better than was offered by others. The phone number is 056-7752600. They have a system similar to Quinn, that is if you want to pay monthly. Best of luck
