Also a bad time of year to renew, possibly worth getting insured for 6 months and then renew again, extra cost now might get ofset with cheaper in 6 months.  Worked in my favour a few years ago.

Mine shot up this year, so I shopped around and was very surprised that Aviva came out cheapest at £299.

Up £11 over four vehicles for us, (all mods declared).

My broker was most apologetic, although truth be told, no-one else could get anywhere close. (£730 ish)

saved about £15 on last year, with mods declared

chances are, they'll hike again next year, after this winter's inevitable claim increase
