At 80 and doing under 1000 miles a year , how much is he insurance ,service Mot and other costs , can you not use your Free bus pass and taxis and save money ?
Anyway , I recently bought insurance for my 17 yr old and tried some specialist Youngster companies , inc Marmalade . I enquired for it before he passed , to give me an idea on whether the vehicle and insurance was affordable . The insurance was about 1700 , but I didn’t take it out . Then when he passed , it went up to 5,000k !!
I and SWMBO are with Direct Line , never had a problem and they say they give us a discount for multiple vehicles.
I got a quote of 2,600 without a black box ,or 2150 with a box for 6,000 miles .
I then worked out he needed 10,000 miles , and was shocked that 3 days later even with the increased mileage , it had gone to 2400 and 1880 ........apparently it could change by the hour .
