If you want cheaper car insurance, try putting your job as Pilot or flying instructor (me £240 fully comp).
I always get cheap quotes having tried different occupations for comparison on comparison sites.
The only job cheaper, Farmer, by £10.

I think the OP has just been experimenting so far!
Don't put delivery driver - I got refused a quote when I did that!
But I quite like putting retired now - it's kind of liberating somehow (and it beats getting up in the dark)!

This is a joke really. In my opinion, Pilots drive home after being up most of the night flying through different time zones. Surely it's logical to say they are a higher risk in that respect.....

Clearly they don't, but for long haul flights at least one of their sectors will be through the night.Chris_D wrote:Pilots only fly at night??Z43.0Si wrote:This is a joke really.

Thought it might be cheaper if said I was a teacher, the quote shot up £100, as apparently you can bend your job title slightly for better premium.
So tried different professions and all quotes went up at least £50 to £100.
Farmers traditionally have cheap quotes, tried that and was only £10 cheaper than mine. (I suppose Landrovers don't go fast enough to crash).
So tells you something about who claims or safer drivers.
