What prices are people paying for insurance now? We crossed from the south last week and I paid 50 euro for 3 days comprehensive.The company had a link up with a broker in the north.Tower Insurance.I know when we lived in Alsancak I used to pay 25 euros for a month!!!!!

Mmmm.... I think you've been had !!!!
I'm sure we paid 25 eu. two months ago.

Yes,I was offered it at 25 euros but that was for third party only.

Sorry I am confused did you buy this insurance for the North side as most of us do not do that?
When travelling South we buy the compulsory 3rd party insurance for €25 per month but our normal TC policy covers us for comprehensive in the South anway.

Yes I bought the insurance in the south for cover in the north just for a quick trip over.

How does your TC policy cover you in the South, if so why buy the euro 25 policy, I am confused.

BB our TC policy covers us for the whole of Europe but the GC's do not accept it their own insurance is compulsory if you want to drive over there.
Rigsby thanks for explanation as said above most of us do not cross South to North so have no experience of the price of insurance but years ago I did get a policy for someone who had a GC car & homes on both sides which might be worth considering if you travel over frequently.
