Subject: Re: Saab 9-5 Wagon Insurance???


We did that and when my my got in a high speed accident in her Jaguar it was hell not the same insurance company, but the second it leaves her record we will start paying the big bucks for better insurance, With the same policy, It is not worth what they make you go threw. But this is still puzzling me cause our insurance company is very cheap for our two Volvos (especially the 240 with 0 driver deaths) The v70 is a little more but its a turbo. But Volvos after accidents are ugly(the car not your body), most older Volvos and probabley older Saabs dont get repaired they just get totaled, the cost to repair them is so high. me again wrote in message ... >Two words: SHOP AROUND > >Integon quoted me USD 1050.00 for 1 year policy, >AIG - USD 147.00 for six month >(not to mention everything in between) > >for exactly the same coverage. >It is not the car, it's the insurance company which make the difference... > >cheers, > >Alex >96 900 S > > >William Rector <worssnopsamhlink.net> wrote in message >news:37F947B8.49CE8811nopsamhlink.net... >> Hello, >> >> I started the thread the other day on 9-5 wagons vs. V70 Volvos.
