I wouldn't insure with that bunch of onanists if you paid me... ever since they sold my claim detsils for a non fault prang in October '13, I get at least one accident management/now win no fee oppswit ringing each week...

And as for Adrian Flux, I pay Admiral the same amount for two cars with all mods declared as I was paying Adrian Flux for one, and that's inspite of only one car having any no claims :-X

We had both cars insured with aviva. After about four years they started taking the piss so we moved to LV, who were almost half the price. After about three years, LV started taking the piss, so we moved to........aviva.....who are much cheaper. Stupid state of affairs.
We pay around £450 for both cars on a multi policy.

MickDundee, I see you live in the holiday resort of Peckham which explains your high premium. I'm not so far from you and I can vouch that its not a bad price.

Been with LV for nearly 20 years, would not go anywhere else , they are superb in my opinion. Have had to claim 3 times over the years prompt payment or repairs carried out to an excellent standard. The 3 cars we have ( 2.6 Omega Fiat Panda Hyundai Terracan ) cost in total £530 fully comp, the premium has come down by 10% each year for the last 3 years.When my daughter was learning to drive 12 years ago there was no charge to add her as a named driver this though has now ceased I believe.Have just had to swap private plates over &'there is no admin charge for new certificates, unlike some companies.

Exactly and in the 13 years of owning the car is the best price I have ever had for the insurance, can't wait for the next 13

I usually pay circa £150 give or take a tenner for each omega (currently with Aviva), and you can reduce it further by using a cashback site as I did :)

Opps me, £470 on mine, with gas, Irmscher kit and wheels and brake upgrade. Which I thought was steep until I compared and saw how much your paying Mick. Lordy!

Moving out off London is not really an option, if I did it would cost me more in additional traveling expenses, so there would not really be any savings made :-X
