I've just gone with HIC. Saved me £100 over Adrian Flux's renewal and given me £5k guaranteed value (book price on the car is ~£1.5k)
Renewal was £580 all in for my 306 Cabrio running the 3.0 V6 engine and all mods declared. I'm 25 with 4 years NCB and a clean licence.

Just renewed my normal car.
Cheapest I found (and I tried loads) was MoreThan.
I have always found Footman James cheapest for the Viento and the Jag

It was for my normal car too. Phoned round a few and the cheepst was still my renewal at £493.50... complained and they gave me it for £448 so took
that. Still seems expensive though. Last year had a 4 year old TT (yawn) and full insurance plus protection was £210, changed to what i thought was
more normal car... WRX and not only has fuel consumption rocketed so too has the insurance

I could barely get an insurance company to quote me for the A6 quattro apart from afew that were askin insane amounts like £2500 an £3000 but i phoned
admiral and they were askin just under £900 so i took it as it was the cheapest I could find .still think i'm paying too much, i'm not
that bad of a driver am I?

try confused.com
Always come up with some good comparisons.
Currently, both of our normal cars are covered by Egg - offering £50 cashback and interest-free payments....

I've certainly found Admiral/Elephant to be the cheapest for me.
I'm 25, 2yr NCB and pay around £600 for my Puma (I had to declare an SP30 and 1 accident - my fault)
Bizarrely a Supra Twin Turbo is about the same cost to insure! Most expensive car I got a quote for from Admiral was a Boxster S at £2500.

Elephant are a pain to claim from.
I had some scum nick my stereo and the claim was dealt with mainly by email.
All their staff have stupid job titles like "Head trainer" or "Elephant handler"
Even though I had protected NCB my renewal premium went up by 67%

If it had been the 2.3 10 or 20V then I might be interested, but I had the 2.0 16V in a coupe and did'nt like it. Could'nt put my finger
on it but it always seemed noisy and didnt like to be reved.

my 17 year old got insured with tesco - far cheaper for his age than any other company but still ballistic none the less. Tesco have an easy, not too
many questions, online quoting system
