would you register your car/insurance at a friends house, a mile or 2 away from your house to fetch your insurance down by 500 quid?

No, but my OH saved £200 on her insurance by adding both me and her father. All because she's under 25, and therefore starts every journey with vigorous wheelspin and ends it with a handbrake turn.

It's not fibbing as we both drive the car occasionally and the addresses are all correct on the policy.

If you do as suggested in your question, the problem comes when you try to claim. If you've said "I live at 23 Nice Street, Lovelytown and park on the drive every night", but then the car gets torched on the road outside 34 Nasty Street, Basrah, and then the insurer's staff figure out that your main residence is 36 Nasty Street, then they'll smell a rat.

If your car's only worth £500 then you've got nothing to lose!
 
I added the wife to my policy and the premium went down by about 12 quid. She didn't drive before.

Since then, I' ve spent more on repairs, wiper stalk, wing mirror...

Who says women can't drive :evil:

Cheers

yep they can drive,

DRIVE YOUR WALLET TO EMPTY.
 
Drive you into poverty,
Drive you up the wall,
Drive you mad,

But can't drive a vehicle as well as a man. ;)

You need to explain the importance of vehicle sympathy to keep maintenance costs down!
 
Anyway, my daughter's car will be registered at my house, where she lives, and her licence is at this same address, she said to the insurance,I Spend time with my boyfriend, They said, as long as.....?




Go on,what was said next?

YOU THINK THAT? yoor miles away ...
 
Insurance companies are not only scanners of forums, to see such threads, but also members...where there is a car related bit, and they see, "I fitted x, y and z to my car", I know people that have been pulled up about it via a forum.

The thing is, when you have an accident, your car is written off, and then the assesor finds out that you are scamming them, and that leaves you open to prosecution, or jail time. So you might find it saves you in the short term, but long term, jail, nobody will insure you in future, and posting in a public forum alerts the companies that you are defrauding.

I'd hate for you to kill someone, then find out you have no insurance, then prosecuted via the Family for £500,000..?
