After age 30-35, the range is not so great.

True, Bill, but I am nearly 60 and my range of premiums was from £500 to over £2000! So the range is not quite as great but still staggering.

Funniest thing I cam acrss was when my son was on my insurance premium. He was unemployed and stayed at home all day on the computer. So I employed him for 10 hours a week to check the computer logs of a company I did business for. He also became director of my own PLC. He still stayed at home all day on the computer but they wanted to put my premiums up by £200 becuase he was now a company director which is, apparanly, a high risk occupation. When I told them I would take my business elsewhere they agreed to remove the extra premium as 'a gesture of goodwill'. Modern day highwaymen! Anyone written a song?

Bold Allied Insurance is my name
And robbing motorists is my game
It was my devious slieght of hand
That cost the unwary an extra grand...
