I'm with Churchill (part of Directline), last year I paid £332.   I have relocated to Glasgow and my renewal is £252.   I have a home policy with Directline and I am a named driver on my fiancee's Directline motor policy so I did an online quote with them expecting loads of discount and the quote came out at over £400!!!   Next on the list to try are Saga and Over 50 Insurance Services.

just checked confused...the cheapest quote was swiftcover,at £274.....but that was with a £300 excess!
I reckon Direct Line will have a new customer at end of the month :y
Why do so many companies have wildly different quotes though? There were 2 or 3 on confused there that were quoting £500-600!!!  >:(

Oh how I wish I could pay the sort of prices some of you are paying. I'm paying £192 per month for 3rd party insurance, I shopped around for ages. I'm 19, Omega 2.2 in group 13 and no ncb. No points or endorsments or anything. Seems totally unfair but that's life  ;D

That sucks Josh.

It will come down a lot once you get a bit of NCD.

When I got quotes for my Astra, they ranged from £300 to £3000 - shows how unregulated it all is....

Saga are atrocious in my view.

You think they are there to benefit experience and carefulness but I suspect they are looking for "gullible" really.  Then you get bombarded with junk from them.  Admittedly they go away if you tick the right boxes.

I was with Direct Line (and Privilege which is also theirs) for quite a few years.  Good, prompt service and good prices...  until they think you're not looking.  Had to change to get back to sensible premiums.

Ive found swiftcover to be really good, might depend on your age though! Mine costs £220 a year fully comp, with 6 years NCD and im 37, cant grumble at that, its less than my old 99 Mondeo TD believe it or not!

I can recommend Adrian Flux quote. £250 fully comp for the year. I'm 34 with 10 years NCB. Got a discount for being a member of a car forum too. And a further discount for being a RoSPA Advanced Driver. :y

Don't know what the service is like if you have to claim though!
