Mine went up 40% about 5 months ago, and that's the average increase.

The old car we just kept about the same, I think an extra £10, but it is terrible.
Looking forward to the main car in the Autumn, I'm expecting an extra £200 at least.

I had the same issue. I looked around and got it for less than I paid last year.

I just glad my car is a (relatively) low insurance group: 15E
For a laugh, I checked the group for Teslas - they start at 36 and go up to 50! Try buying an EV when you are 17 ...

I have an eighteen year old Toyota so it's group 13.

18 years ago I paid a bit under $1500/yr for my car insurance.
Today it's a bit under $1400/yr. It's the same car. It's 18 years old and now practically worthless. Never claimed anything.

May I disagree? I'd rather be 17. Better yet: 30... insurance cost and everything

I'm fairly old and I have a lot of no claims bonus!
Plus I drive a "sensible car" (Merc B-Class diesel) rather than a pocket rocket.

We're just outside, but have to regularly go in, and our car wasn't compliant, but we were fortunate and able to afford to upgrade; not everyone was so lucky. Some of my friends have "modern classics" which they can't really afford to use regularly now.
Another one of my friends lives in the ULEZ. Paradoxically, his recent diesel is compliant, his wife's older petrol car wasn't.

I just got my notice yesterday (Virginia, USA). It went up at least 50% since last year.

interestingly, my son graduated from college last year. about 6 months ago he bought his first car with his own money. Insurance for said car was quite a bit more than he was ready for. He could afford it but after a couple months it went up again. So he started shopping around and suddenly it went back down to lower than before. Insurance is just weird. DW and I pay about 1/3 what he pays
He is a good driver with a clean record and the car is just a 4 door VW Jetta. nothing fancy.

Renewed mine last week, it's gone down £10, now about the same as it was pre-covid (but different, much newer, car). But not like the one year when it went from £250+ to £38. No changes to policy, car, or driver. Just one absurdly cheap year. Anyway at £170 for a 4-year old car, outside London but inside M25, I'm not complaining. Same insurer for about 8 or 9 years now.

Bob's looking rather smart in his Mounty kit, give it a few hours and he'll be rolling around drunk from too much maple syrup mead screaming how Toronto are the best hockey team.
Every year the same.
