Admiral Multi-car Insurance
« on: 25 September 2008, 10:04:29 »

Has anyone had any experience of this, good or bad? On the face of it, it looks good in that they'll cover my Omega for around £250, against other companies quotes that seem to be around £400, as part of a multi-car policy covering 3 cars.
A down side that's obvious is that next year all 3 car's insurances will require renewal at the same time & Admiral's charges deter you from paying monthly.
TIA

I went through every option on insurance and got told a load of crud.

Went with Admiral MC.  I have 2 x V6 Miggys a 3.0 Elite and a 2,5 GLS.

All other companies were wanting £370 ish for the Elite alone.  I got the pair for £250 + £220 £470

Discount is achieved in a few ways one of the biggest is paying up front.

If you read into the policy I belive you can start the AMC policy with 1 car and add to it, allthough they may add an admin fee.  So with 3 cars the may be a chance to stagger it.

Onlt down side I can see immediatelt is they use RAC windsreens.  (Check/search for EAC for a post by Marks DTM)(seems the RAC fit naff Omega screens)

Give them a ring and sound them out and put all your concerns to them.  The guy I dealt with was brilliant.

They would stagger it to start off. Omega would start in a couple of weeks, SWMBO's Astra in Jan & my Astra shed in Feb.
 :-/Just thought .... I'll have to ask re NCD in respect of the part years cover.

after reading this post i tried admiral multicar for a qoute,
im not sure if they are cheap or dear
they qouted the following
3.0 miggy £393 and rover 414 £397 with me as sole user on both and only occasional user on rover
i was kind of expecting the rover to be dirt cheap , not dearer than the miggy so in that way dear
however the cheapest qoute i have had for just the miggy is £580 with admiral
fully comp im over 30 and have 5 years no claims

I use that policy to cover my 2.

Never had to make a claim, so no idea how good they are though.
