I'm looking to phone Keith michaels soon as i've got my insurance up for renewal in july but have got a new car.
Only decent quotes i've had so far are around £1950 not bad i thought to say im 19 with two years NCB coming. You think you'll be able to bet it??

Depends on several factors.
If you've owned the car, or very similar (ie another Impreza/Evo) for a year, we'll be very cheap.
If you haven't owned the same car for a year, but have experience on performance cars (200+ bhp) we can still quote, and will still be competitive, but won't be quite so cheap.
If you haven't owned a performance car for over a year, it drastically reduces the amount of companies we use who'll quote, so although we can certainly quote you, it might not be as cheap.
Hope this helps

Would you class a impreza Sport as a performance car Moley?

Thought I'd share my recent experience with Keith Michaels...
Rang Gary who put me straight through to some guy called Patrick who I've had a few difficulties with... generally a bit rubbish at asking the right questions and missed loads of details that I had to say "hang on, you've not asked me about XYZ" etc. a good example being that he didn't take my reg number until after I'd paid and reminded him that he hadn't asked for it!
So I have gone with Keith Michaels... but the paperwork arrived on Saturday with half of it missing (no schedule, no policy booklet) and some spelling errors on names (mine and my wife's) so not a great start. Called Patrick several times today... always on the phone, left a message and no return call. Ended up calling reception and having a moan, only then did the chap say he'd sort out the missing paperwork and get the certificate with the correctly spelt names on!
Not sure why I was passed straight from Gary to Patrick despite calling him on his direct number and saying I was from Scoobynet.
So for me, not a 100% smooth experience but I'm now paid up and hope the experience improves in the future!

1) You'd had a quote fromus before done by Pat
2) We have so many people ring up and moan ''this is the 3rd time i have tried Gary'' that the managers now say that Scoobynet quotes can be done by anyone, as they are worried about the amount of potential business we are loosing.
FWIW Pat has been at Keith Michaels for many years, is very clued up on performance cars, and is very professional.
We'd only ask for a reg once we have taken payment, as that is one of the last things we need to complete paperwork. We don't use the system that picks up car details from reg numbers.

Would have been one of two reasons.....
1) You'd had a quote fromus before done by Pat
2) We have so many people ring up and moan ''this is the 3rd time i have tried Gary'' that the managers now say that Scoobynet quotes can be done by anyone, as they are worried about the amount of potential business we are loosing.

However long Patrick has been there he was clearly rushed that day as I've just had the PROPER paperwork through today (with all the stuff he forgot to send) and there are even MORE mistake! Date of births for both me and the wife are wrong (year is wrong) and modifications are not listed on the statement of fact. I will be calling in the morning to sort this out and hopefully end up with the correct paperwork with all the details that I had told Patrick carefully and clearly on the phone. I can only hope that he got the premium correct!
I didn't add to this thread to moan, only to state my experience which I was hoping would be a good one, however it has not been great.
Cheers
Jon
EDIT: Just counted up and there are a total of 8 mistakes on the paperwork, this time... sigh

Slept on it and have cancelled policy with KM (didn't start until Friday anyhow). Lost confidence in the company but from what I've read it's most likely an isolated case.
Thanks for trying anyhow
