Had my renewal through today from Greenlight.... Unless I need contact lenses/glasses I wont be renewing with them as the premium is mind blowingly high.

Topped that off by doing a quick quote on Elephant/Admiral - with all mods declared - and it came out a full ?800 cheaper [:O]

Has anyone tried Liverpool Victoria or Adrian Flux?

 

[shorty]

I can never understand how despite another years claim free motoring the premium always goes up, but as a brand new customer they offer a competitive quote

I am also about to renew mate and First Alternative have quoted me ?398 FC, as have Sainsburys (22, 5yrs NCB, 2.8 V6)...gonna ring Adrian Flux and see how close they can get. They are usually pretty good, when I was getting quotes of ?550 with the main people they quoted ?660 FC but any mods I want declared. Pretty good

Same here.. it's gone up by over 70% this year, why???

Okay I live in Liverpool, in one of the borderline postcodes still can't see how its gone up by so much.

Ho Hum!

Just tried a whole host of other insurers and no-one can get within ?700 of Elephant/Admiral...

Need to try Adrian Flux next week.

 

[bigburd]

Just got mine through ?613 (norwich union direct)

7 points declared

1 outstanding claim

I also got them to quote for

exhaust mod. ?636

engine mod. would not quote for this

Thanks I'll give them a try.

Don't bother with Elephant mate, apparently they're a nightmare. I went with Adrian Flux and they've been a lot cheaper than others and offer like for like replacement of my mods.

Cheers will deffo give them a try next week.

Give Belldirect a go, they are part of the admiral / elephant group, but they came up cheaper then elephant on my last renewal....

Just tried them Del, price came out the same as Elephant/Admiral.

Tabs, if you havent already add your parents/any older friends to the elephant policy as it should take it down even more.

 

[Foxy]

I would do that but i dont know ANYONE older than me! LOL!

 

[Golfgirl]

I'm with Elephant as they were very competitive and the cheapest by miles. Whether this will show if I need to make a claim I don't know, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it!

I did get a quote for mods thoguh - they wanted an extra ?236 for a S/S exhaust and 11-25% extra power from a chip which I thought was quite steep.[B)]

I saved myslef ?80 by adding older drivers to the policy though[^]

Been on to Adrian Flux this morning, came it very good at ?1120 with like-for-like cover on my mods. Unless Greenlight can beat that I think I'll be going with Adrian Flux!

 

[EddyH]

Have you tried Liverpool Victoria yet, they gave me a good quote and cover all mods at no extra as long as you don't change the engine capacity.

 

[NETDI]

I'm with esure at the moment - ?530 fully comp, with protected NCB, gf also on policy. Try confused.com, they check about 30 insurers but you only fill in one form, mind you esure was the cheapest and I didn't try elephant.

 

[Tabs]

Eddy tried them and they came out at ?2000!

NETDI also tried confused.com and they were as much use as a chocolate fireguard lol....

 

[turbo_gti]

Tabs I think it must just be where you live with elephant. Mine come in at over ?2000. It wasnt evan that much 2 years ago when I bought the car.....

 

[Milkfloat]

I have just signed up with Greenlight. ?587 including all the mods. A little bit pricey but worth it for the peace of mind, rather than driving undeclared.
