Don't remind me... :'( I blinked and last year already passed! Though my 8s insurance quotes are now a much nicer number so... Can't complain.

I remember back when I was 20 and the insurance quotes for my Alfa were a bigger than the brokers phone number :shock:

Okay, phone numbers were also shorter then :roll:

Insurance Quotes

Post by GreySilver Beast »

Just renewed my Car Insurance for another year with Chris Knott as I can't fault them what so ever =D>

They are handling the Repair Bill at the moment that is going through regarding the damage that the other driver did to the GT86 on Saturday 8th February, so saw no point switching companies at this time :!:

Renewal was £459 but unfortunately jumped to £501 as I recently received 3 points on my license being caught for speeding on the M23 doing 91mph :( :( :( :(

I got Full PNCB and been driving since 1984 :twisted:

Just a quick one. I'll be insuring my 8 again in the end of October. Just wondering, for example, if my current policy expires 20th October, could I pay for the insurance to start on the 21st before my current policy has expired, and with that years no claims added on? Hope that's clear enough!

Re: Insurance Quotes

I always renew/find new quotes before my current insurance expires. On the basis that if the new insurer asks for proof of no claims then my old one can generally provide it straight away anyway. Has always been done automatically and as the "new" years no claims if that makes sense. As far as Im aware anyway... Though I always say I have X amount of no claims based on the years insurance ending.

I just renewed mine, £780 with breakdown cover. Surprisingly reasonable for a 19 year old! Was £1300 last year with a black box, so a very good improvement and without a box!

Some of the quotes people at work get who are like 17 years old is insane... The focus was £450 with protected no claims etc. Next years 8s insurance non modified would be £300~ so... Overpaying a bit right now for sure.

I just got a quote from Adrian Flux and it was 800 a year! Even on the comparison sights its coming in at 350 lol

That was with the club discount, so wont ever be wasting my time calling them again.

Yes, last time I called Flux (after checking comparison sites and telling them how much I was being offered) the chap on the other end of the phone went "I'll be honest, probably worth looking elsewhere" as it was coming out 2/2.5x more expensive.

I'm sure if you've got something super special it's competitive, but for average Joe it would seem not. Still, no harm in calling them I suppose.
