Insuring a second car

Just wondering so not sure if I will do this or not but just giving it a thought.

As my Type-S is uber rare and sexy, I can't use it as a daily and have some pikey scratching it or crashing in to it. :x

Was wondering if I get a daily car (maybe a cheap estate or a Polo or something) and use that as a daily.

Can I do multi-car insurance with my existing policy with Sky insurance?

Anyone on here running two cars? (Prelude and one another daily)?

No. No one drives apart from me. :cry:

So at the moment, the Type-S is getting abused by house shopping etc.. :evil: :cry:

I usual have another car for the winter. Sky mirrored a large chunk of NCB for my 2nd policy to make it worthwhile.

remember you have to run 2 cars,

that's 2 insurance, 2 tax, 2 MOT's, 2 sets of tyres

pissed me off in the end so sold my 2nd car

I'd love a 2nd car but too young insurance won't let me do it yet until I'm 25.

may be expensive then buddy i insure 3 cars and it helps to have my missus on the policies as it lowers the amount of time you possibly are behind the wheel so lowers the insurance from what i can gather
