Well twas that time of the year again, got oor multi-car renewal in frae Admiral-£948 for all 3 cars, worked out as £384 for the zed, £310 for Claires Astra, and £229 for my scrote

Thought that was no too bad but phoned aboot anyway and got everything in for £850 with Adrian of flux, which got the Astra doon to £275 and the remainder for my two motors so quite happy. still got quotes to come in but doubt many if any will beat what i have so far

Not bad, we used to be with Direct Line, renewal time came up, thought I would check around and found it about 25% cheaper. Went to DL to say I wouldnt be coming back, they said they could say it was online and it would be 10% cheaper. They couldnt get down to the new price.

What annoys me is that as an existing customer, everything is all set up for them, why do they always give a lower price for new customers?? You would think customer loyalty and a known claims record would be worth something.

Insurance is irritating come renewal time, however no-one has come close to Admiral so far for me. They have been pretty good so far with the Jimny claim.

Hope Kathy is feeling better, I expect you will be letting her have the Disco, untill you get another one sorted.

Admiral worked out miles cheaper than any other company for my 350z. I got 25% off all the add-ons, such as breakdown,legal cover etc once I haggled with them.

21 year old, 350z GT, 3 years driving, 3 years no claims. £1500 fully comp. I'm very happy.

Give Chris Knott a shout, you won't regret it!!

Got my modified policy for £440, where Flux/Sky wanted £760 for a standard policy at renewal time!

I managed to loose my insurance certificate, I called them and they sent out a new one free of charge, and it arrived the next day! Most places (like Flux) charge an admin fee, and it takes ages!

God, I wish I lived in that postcode. I'm looking around at getting a ZS 180 and my 'scorts insurance is nearly what you're paying for all three cars...
