Sith Happens Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Great point!Regarding Female drivers, I bet you never knew there is a car insurance company called GirlsDriveBetter.com - Only for females which I deem as sexist, don't get me started on sexism ill be going on about it for 16 pagesInsurance companies are no longer allowed to rate differently based on sex of the driver, so in theory if your male or female, with the same car etc the price would be the same. This is quite recent in the last 18 months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just just bought a new car (Seat Leon FR) and it was about £80 cheaper to insure the girlfriend on it compared to my dad, despite her having an accident in 2012.

There are other factors though, an accident 3 years ago would usually be ignored, and your dad might have a higher risk occupation etc...Plus if you live with your girlfriend then that would make it cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
