Car insurance? who would you recommend?

[subucni]

hi, i just realised about 20 minutes ago after picking up a renewal letter that my car insurance runs out at the end of the day. DAMN!! just made me wonder whether it's worth shopping around for a new quote or sticking with them.

so basically out of interest, who do you recommend for cheap insurance?

Confused.com
Endsleigh if you are a student
Tesco
Elephant
And dont forget to get a couple quotes and make them fight for it, although you not got much time for that. I had endsleigh slug it out against motaquote - this dropped me at least 60 quid i think.

I've been getting some pretty good quotes from admiral through confused.com

Used to get good quotes from elephant.co.uk, but not so good now

rofl are they hell, quote me happy my ar*e £2100 for my car which i got at first quote for £650 with three points. Forget NU and check out performance insurance they will insure anyone with perfomance cars, points etc etc and on the cheap to

it depends on the car - if you have an owners club , they often have a discount scheme.

I'm actually with norwich union myself at the moment, and i must say that so far they are the cheapest with only £385.97 for a renewal but i'm still looking, it's annoying cause i'm now paying more insurance for a newer k reg 1.1 metro s then i did last year for my old h reg 1.3 metro clubman. god damn that little s in it's name!!!

I don't think its fair comment to say forget any insurnace company, one that is outrageously expensive for one car, might be the best quote on another. So many varyables to providing a quote, best thing is to get a mag like Top Gear/Evo/What Car and look through the insurance section at the back. Go through each company and find the cheepest, might take some time, but its saved me some £££.

Direct line and Churchill are very good, and very cheap. My mother was with Direct Line last year, she was paying £340. But it went up this year to £380, so she is now with Churchill for £350

I used to be with Churchill, and they were very cheap, but I will never EVER use them again for anything. When someone crashed into my car they were very good at dealing with the details and providing a car etc, but did the most god awful repair i've ever seen, took over 6 months to get the damage they caused put right

Also they don't like ANY modifications to vehicles and check them with a fine toothcomb for any violations - the other reason I parted company with them.

As for recommendations I'm with Liverpool Victoria who are fantastic - they don't care about modifications or points/convictions and gave me a really good price (although touch wood not had the chance to test their policy yet )

Would a new stereo count as a modification? I replaced my tape player with a cd unit i picked up for 65 quid at a half price sale. Wonder if i am supposed to tell my insurance about it?

It wouldn't suprise me if Churchill invalidated a policy for a non-declared Magic Tree Air Freshener
