Been with brentacre for the past five years, obv they have sent the renewal through at more than what I paid. Who do we recommend, anyone off here do it?

 

Give Sky insurance a ring or Keith Michaels. Details over in the insurance section.

 

Just had my Renewal...£217... GB270, no mods..... and £157 for my 06 Freelander TD4 Admiral multicar

 

Thats the one, 'Keith Michaels'. Have dropped Green light a pm on the other forum im on. Last year, just under £600 fully comp unlimited mods etc. Renewal £768 lol.

 

Chris Knott

 

keep them coming, more the merrier although it is tiresome ringing round

 

Admiral

 

tend to use both Keith Michaels and A-Plan. Gary at Keith Michaels usually does well for my car with the mods it has. though this year A-Plan came out with best deal.

 

I have emailed both chris knott and keith michaels.

 

For decent quotes I give Greenlight and Sky Insurance recommendations.

I used to Insure my other car with Brentacre, but they couldn't get the same price as another company using the same underwriter when it came to renew. Nice that you usually get one of the same 3 people answer the phone though.

Pick up the phone and talk to someone instead of emailling :-)

 

A Plan, were really good. I think it was Henry I spoke with.
He did a bit of underwriting based on google maps as our location is a bad postcode. Was very helpful

 

Spoke to Greenlight, they can only match the stupid quote Brentacre have offered me as they both use 'Highway'. Will contact Sky and see what they say. is it not just easier via email?

 

Interesting, I found that Adrian Flux with Highways, was cheaper than Brentacre.. with Highways

 

He can remove admin costs but that's about it.

 

just had an interesting quote from CHurchill.
clean licences and lots of yr ncb , and another car linked to the policy , but a seperate policy for Scooby Legacy two adults plus 25yr son AND 22yr Daughter fully comp 366.
Has to be unmodified car though.... , she pays 675 for her Panda 1.1 with 2yr ncb!
so as soon as the rear suspension has been rebuilt , they will all be able to drive it !!!

 

Give Swinton a call..When I swapped over from my S3 to my Hawk a couple of weeks ago,mind you the hawk is worth more,newer and more powerful, its £200 a year cheaper than the Audi..Weird!

 

I'm with Admiral, renewal/update from a 9K car to a 30K car and the premium reduced.

I think they make up the renewals haphazardly!

 

Insurance premiums are affected by the following:

Your personal habits (i.e. drinking, smoking etc.)
Solar flares
Your address
The price of fish on a wet Tuesday in Margate
Your car's value and age
The last film you saw at the cinema
Security features
If you wear white after Labour Day
Your family status
The gravitational pull of the moon
Claims history
Any perceived link to the Illuminati

There may be more…

 

At my last renewl I was given a quote by company X, 3 days later I called them to take it and they recalulated and it went down by about £50!

 

Age, postcode, vehicle, claims, experience, convictions are the main ones.... but if i'm having a bad day any of the above could apply

Competition Car Insurance 0844 8921966
REIS 0115 985 0165
Footman James 0843 3571937

Enjoy your afternoon ringing around

 

ffs

 

I use Aviva - £735 multicar with BMW120d m-sport (business use) and highly modified hawkeye wrx!

 

I'm after a policy that if I change bits, exhaust, wheels etc there's no charge. Do they do that?

 

I'm not sure if they charge each time to add bits on - I'd imagine they would probably have an admin charge (most companies do I think?).

 

Some good info there mate.I will remember these for my self come renewal time

 

With brentacre if I add anything I just ring up tell them what it is, exhaust, wheels etc and they just add it on, no cost.

 

Used Adrian Flux for years but on my hatch Esure gave me the best quote surprisingly.

 

With my policy through Chris Knott, if I make any changes they wont effect my premium unless I add bhp or something stupid like a full bodykit.

Let us know how you get on with a quote

 

Yeah will do. Will post my findings
