Example 1
- Capacity: 1600
- Driver age: 30
- Region: 1.0
Premium 2,320
No age surcharge.
Type engine capacity, driver age, and the region factor. 1600 cc, age 30 and region 1.0 give a 2320 premium. Third-party is the compulsory slice and comprehensive is the extra cover: this model is a shared sketch, not an insurer quote.
Base = 400 + capacity×1.2 + driver-age surcharge (under 26: +300, over 65: +150), then times region. Not a quote. Fold this premium into a year on annual running cost.
Engine capacity (cc), Driver age (years) and Area / region factor. The result shows up here.
Base = 400 + capacity × 1.2 + age surcharge. Premium = base × region (0.9 / 1.0 / 1.2). 1600 × 1.2 = 1920, plus 400 is 2320, age 30 has no surcharge, region 1.0 leaves 2320. 2000 cc, age 22 and region 1.2: base 2800 + 300 = 3100, times 1.2 = 3720.
1400 cc, age 70 and region 0.9: 1680 + 400 + 150 = 2230, times 0.9 = 2007. The age field is driver age, not model year. Under 26 adds 300, over 65 adds 150, between those marks adds zero.
Fields are capacity in cc, driver age in years, and the region list. Header currency only formats the result. The km/mile switch does not change cubic centimeters. A comma in capacity is unused: 1600 is sixteen hundred.
Paste the premium as one yearly line on annual running cost. TCO will add purchase and value loss. There are no no-claims discounts, loss history, or comprehensive deductibles here.
Blank capacity does not fill 1600 from the example. Typed zero cc leaves a 400 base plus age, then times region. A minus is rejected. The result is a sketch from three inputs, not a carrier calculation.
Type 1600, 30 and 1.0, click Calculate, and match 2320. Then 2000, 22 and 1.2: 3720. When you quote the number, call it an estimate, not a third-party or comprehensive offer.
Base = 400 + capacity×1.2 + age surcharge, then times region. 1600 cc, age 30, and region 1.0 give a 2320 premium.
Premium 2,320
No age surcharge.
Premium 3,720
Young driver + higher region.
Premium 2,007
Senior + lower region.
2320. 2000 cc, age 22 and region 1.2 give 3720. 1400 cc, age 70 and region 0.9 give 2007.
No. It is driver age. Surcharge: under 26 +300, over 65 +150, otherwise 0.
It multiplies the base. 0.9 cuts, 1.2 lifts, 1.0 leaves it. An area sketch, not a city tariff.
No. A carrier prices those products. Here you have capacity, driver age, and region.
Discounts, claims, mileage, a garage, comprehensive options. Those fields are not here.
It formats the printout. The formula stays 400 + capacity×1.2 + age, times region.
The calculator does not compute and does not fill 1600 from the example. It needs cc, age, and region.
The base falls to 400 plus the age surcharge, then times region. A minus is rejected.
No. Capacity is in cc. The unit switch does not multiply 1600.
In the insurance field on annual running cost. TCO still adds purchase and value loss.
