I have happily used Ripe insurance for the past three years.
This year, they have declined to quote on the grounds that I am over 80.
This is apparently the policy of the underwriters ERS Ltd.
Rather worryingly, I was over 80 last year, but this wasn't picked up and my insurance was renewed. At the time, I noted that I was pleasantly surprised as I had passed the magic four score years and thought that didn't matter to them.
As has been the case for the last 20 years or more, I didn't have an accident, but it could have been an interesting situation if I had.
At least there's plenty of information here about where to look for renewal!
