best time of the year to renew car insurance? - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

Hi all,

This is probably a daft question, but does anyone know if the cost of car insurance fluctuates during the year (ie: higher in the summer, lower in the winter?) If so, is there a 'best time' to get a quote?

Just thinking if the GTR is off the road / not being used very much, I can delay/SORN for a while and maybe save a couple of hundred pounds?

December/January was cheapest when I was just generally browsing compare websites

even if its SORNed you still have to have insurance iirc?

LiamGTR · 31st March 2012, 02:33 PM

Surely not if it's SORN and in a garage? I dunno
