Adrian@TORQEN Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Chris Knott Insurance - where I have 4 cars insured have sent me a £1222.00 but matched £942 offered by Sky Insurance Sky Insurance - £942.00 Adrian Flux - £2693.59 Bridle Insurance - £845 LWIB - no call back yet Performance Direct - £3,406.55 - AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH, WTF?! Elephant - £1545.30 4y unprotected NCB 6y Full UK Driving License 12y resident in UK 32yo WD24 postcode Annnnnnd the wiiiiinnneeeeeer iiiiiis: Bridle Insurance using Markerstudy as underwriter for £845.00 (including protected NCB, 30days in Europe, £500 excess, £80 windscreen replace) It's a shame that CK couldn't match to be honest, I had a really really nice customer service over the last 12 months! I feel sorry now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'd say Sky cos that's a wicked price considering your mods and 4 cars. I pay that through Adrian Flux just for one car, but that's only because Adrian Flux are a far as I'm aware who will touch NOS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flex Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Perhaps no use if you have NOS but Elephant (Admiral's sister co) got my (standard) GT down to £371. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian@TORQEN Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Updated first post with Elephant's quote at £1545.30. No, I haven't got NOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Perhaps no use if you have NOS but Elephant (Admiral's sister co) got my (standard) GT down to £371. That's ok if you haven't got 56 mods and still counting. I also wanted European cover which is sometimes extra with other policies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbitstew Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Christ some big variances in price there. Still I think the sky quote seems reasonable for what you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky370z Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 i would wait for LWIB to come back. they gave me a very good deal on mine. (with a few mods) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Sky seems a bargain, I wouldn't expect a quote much cheaper than that for your car tbh. Can you not protect your NCB at 4 years? Would seem a no-brainer to do so if possible, even for another £100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narcotix Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I saved quite a lot with Admiral this year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetSet Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I saved quite a lot with Admiral this year! Yeah, we went down the Admiral route this year. The policy for 3 cars, 2 Zed's and a Clio actually worked out slightly more expensive than staying with the existing insurance, all 3 were with different companies. So why did I change, well the policy on The Clio only covered my daughter, aged 22 for 90 days a year, this one covers her for the entire year. In fact the Clio worked out at £600 with my 4 years NCB , the Zed's roughly £500 each with max NCB. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marzman Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 My renewal came through with admiral multicar today... very pleased with it. £1177 for 2 cars (Zed and a Fiesta), all mods declared, business use for me on both cars, 7yrs NCB, and my fiance is only a provisional license holder. The split was £715 on the zed and £463 on the Fiesta. Cant complain at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't really quite know why they're trying to rip me off, I live and nice area, car is on the driveway, 4y no claim bonus and so on... ...and so they should (Thats a joke, my fiance is black!) Is that 845 you're paying just for the zed, or for 4 cars? It wasnt clear on your first post... Also, how old are you as that will make a difference, but at the end of the day it's a postcode lottery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, my fiancée is African - we've been together for 9 years (engaged for 2) and literally this week we're going through the final stage of earning british citizenship (costing us £874 ). ...She's the reason i sold my first zed as we had to get a Solicitor to keep her in thr country Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbro Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Just about to renew with ESURE. £241 fully comp. I am old, no mods, lots of ncb. £350 excess. So I know I am different. Everyones situation is different but thought it was worth a mention as not seen ESURE been mentioned on here before. Interested to know if anyone else is with them?

Esure came out the same as Elephant for me this year, £341 FC, 350 excess but had 3 points this year and car now in garage which apparently pushes the premium up too.
