Default This year I have picked: Adrian Flux

Hey,

Since people are always on the look out for comparative quotes I thought I'd post up about what I got this year, so we will start with last year.

Me: 21 (22 this year), 3points SP30, 1 write-off £3000, 2 (3 years NCD this year), driving performance cars since 17

Car: MY98 UK Turbo - £3750 - no mods

Last Year:
eCar Insurance
Fully Comp + commuting + 3 named drivers (inc gf 22 held licence for only 2 years)
Premium - £1250
Excess - £500

This year everyone was wanting more off me, not a chance!, the general market was asking for £1600. After much shopping around (tried the favorets on here) I found Adrian Flux were offering good prices this year.

This Year:
Adrian Flux
Fully Comp + commuting + 3 named drivers (inc gf 22 held licence for 3 years now)
Premium - £999
Excess - £550



Not as much as I was hopping it would come down to this year, but still a small saving over last year. The service I got from AF was very good fast and professional (so far lets hope they keep it up if I ever contact them this year).


Hope you all find a good deal, i think I got the best that was out there at this time.

Nice quote, Adrian Flux told me that I had to be 25 before they'd touch me on a turbo !

It seems to depend alot on who you get through to with them. They have told me some load of crap in the past to the point iv hung-up.

Maby they have a 25 limit on import turbos? dono why cos they only a few bhp diff. I would try them a few times see if you can get through to diff people and state that you are a member here and know that they do insure under 25's

Used Adrian Flux for my cars before the Scooby, 2 Punto Turbos. there were the best deals araound for me, but they wouldn't insure me on the Scoob's.

My latest quote for the Scoob's is from eCar, its half the price of anyone else. What do yuou think of them?

used them last year. I like the fact that you can add any driver for £15 a year, also like the fact you make your own changes and they dont charge you for it (unlike every other insurance co who rip you off "yes that will be £18 for me to change your details that dont change the insurance")

Never made any claims with them so dont know about that side of things.

I would say go for it.

definately. ive been with ecar since dec 06. they save a lot of money as theyre internet only, so no ringing up to get a quote. sites easy enought to use. pass savings onto us, which is why i went with them.

had to put in two non fault claims last year totalling nearly 3k of costs to recover from other parties. insurance still went down 500 this year lol.

I was with Adrian Flux for 2 years now with my Seat Leon. I am 25 with a rather less than perfect license, but thankfully no claims. When i told them i was buying a Scoob they told me the company my exising policy is with dont insure Impreza's. Fair play, so i would have to start a new Policy, not the end of the world... except that the new policy would go up to £3600...

After laughing at the Adrian Flux rep for a few minutes i hung up and rang A-plan who immediately offered £1570... weird huh???

Gary at Keith Michaels then beat it again, now at £1100...

EDIT: And as for 'ecar', may be brilliant for some, but my quote for exactly the same details came out at £7300, PMSL!!!
