Car insurance time
« on: 22 September 2009, 10:34:56 »
While having mu annual phone around for car insurance, currently have a Multi-car policy with Admiral, I phoned Direct Line.
Asked the usual questions, (Guy's House Invasion seems to be costing me dear - they don't like 6 points  :() and was asked about modifications. If I was to fit a set of facelift alloys to my car  ...... which I obviously haven't  ::)  ::)  ::) .... it would load my premium by £150  :o  :o  :o

Try MoreThan insurance. I got a great deal for two cars from them this year, on separate policies.
I use one for day to day use and the Omega for occasional use. So I had limited mileige on both, which brings the price down a bit.

Omega was £620 on it's own ..... we both didn't think it was worth continuing  for the 2nd & 3rd car  ;D  ;D  ;D

I got here .... http://www.cglloyds.co.uk/index.html ...from somewhere  :-/ and was quoted £720 for the 3 on a 'Family Policy' which I thought was a result.  :y  :y  :y

He says right at the end, that he brought the premium down even further by opting NOT to have a courtesy car. I haven't found a company yet who will discount for giving up their 'free' courtsy car. All these 'free' add ons all have a cost to someone which generally means that me & thee are paying for it some where along the line.  :-/  :-/  :-/

I've been using http://www.quotelinedirect.co.uk/ for a few years now, nobody else seems to be able to match them for me.
It's the dodgy BL postcode that does it Andy. ;D
