Besides, it's not the age that gets you, it's the mileage!

That will be it... the NCB is just the discount you get off the bottom line figure... that bottom line figure is dependent on a lot of things including accidents in the last 4 years.

Rates also will differ slightly depending on the area you live in in the city.

I've also heard that some insurances now look into your credit rating to determine costs too (dunno if that's true?).
...and, you can get huge "multi=policy" discounts for multiple cars, home, and life insurance policies. I even get a discount because my daughter gets good grades in school!

Think they have only just started doing multi-car policy discounts etc over here, saved me a few pounds this year :)

Just turned 39 the other day.

I read somewhere that 39 is the new 38, and I believe it!
