My car insurance is up for renewal and I'm unsure whether to apply some voluntary excess to the policy to reduce the premium. As I'm 22, there is a compulsory excess of £150 already. I also have 3 years no claims and my car value is estimated at £3000.
I was trying to assess whether I would make a claim on something which cost £150, considering I would lose my 3 years no claims and increase my premium.
Increasing my voluntary excess from £0 to £100 would reduce my premium by £25.
I'm basically looking for some financial advice really. Is voluntary excess worth taking in this situation? If so, how much would be recommended?
Thanks in advance ;o)
