I think it all depends on individual circumstances, but make sure you try Frank Pickles.

A/F has quoted me renewal £141 + 15 guaranteed valuation £5000
Im 57 how can it change so much

They are chancing their arm as all insurers do. Ring around, get some quotes then tell flux you have cheaper quotes, I guess they will then match your cheaper quotes.

For me personally insurance companies get one chance. If I get a cheaper quote elsewhere then I go, they should try and keep customers not rip them off. Just all imho obviously

And thats why i am looking for other quotes if thats the best Af can do without me telling them i can get it cheaper etc etc

Frank pickles get my vote. I'm 31 with the fury on 3000 miles a year and agreed value of £7k for £99 this year. Same price as the previous 2 years pretty much

Frank Pickles was good for me. There may be some that are £ 10 or so cheaper but their service is top rate.

mark chandler - 1/7/13 at 11:02 AM

Just insured with Frank Pickles, limited to 1000 miles as I want to sprint etc and trail the car, £94 so did not even bother calling anyone else.

jacko - 1/7/13 at 03:26 PM

Well here is one for you Re- newel with A/F £141 to much i think so rang them i said i want it under £ 100 after a few minutes they come back at £96
Why can't they do that on re-newel time

Not Anumber - 1/7/13 at 04:25 PM

I wish insurance brokers would just charge customers a set transaction fee rather than making commision on the premium like they do now. it would keep them honest and improve their industry.

Brokers must just love it everytime someone renews without shopping around - rather than there being any incentive for them to find the best deal for existing customers they are actually incentivised to keep the premium as high as they think they can get away with.

Insurance costs also seem to vary month to month, I left mine on my bike and got it £20 cheaper from the same local broker.
