Default Any insurance recommendations?

My insurance is up for renewal in a couple of weeks, and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for insurance companies to get quotes from?

Thanks

Howard.

Give Privilage a ring....



31 with 3 yrs NCB, 25K miles, insured for business, parked on drive & wife on policy



Unfortunately we moved recently to a postcode which has a section of the M25 running through it. Nice for work.

Best quote was with Privilage. Cost

There's a big jump in premium depending on mileage. We've got the Impreza on a sub 10K mile policy and it's less than 1K.

Still the S2K policy is eye watering.....

Most expensive quote I got was 4.8K from Hill House Hammond

I'll be dropping the miles at renewal so I'll see if it makes a difference.

Having had a claim, and therefore no no claims bonus, and living in London, I did a lot of shopping around and for me (30yrs, clean licence, on road) Elephant.co.uk were the cheapest.
I was with Privilege, but saved one third of my renewal when I went to Elephant, they are all online and are basically Admiral Insurance, but everything is done through email and the website, you only call if you really want to.
Having had that women drive into me I can say that Elephant have dealt with it all quite quickly (well as quick as any insurance company ever does).

Hope that helps, oh and they quote all online too
