Where's the catch?

Good afternoon all

Does anyone have any experiance of the insurance company "greaham sykes"? I have just got an online quote from them for this years cover on the windy and it seems stupidly cheap to me.

I'm 27 with 8 years tin top ncb, it's a 2.0 pinto under the bonnet, garaged over night and I have less than 2 years experience of this type of vehicle. The quote came in at £130 fully comp which was almost half what flux wanted to renew I'm now wondering, Where's the catch???

Am I missing somthing or should I be signing on the dotted line?

thanks a lot

sign the dotted line...

I don't think thats stupidly cheap for a renewal for your car, I think several other people have had similar quotes for similar cars/cover.

always put the missus on the insurance, it lowers it! i put my mum on mine, reduced it by something like £50

There's cheap insurance out there!! The only reason I'm with Flux is because I had my build up insurance with them and they gave me a partial discount when I did the on-road insurance. Then I cancelled it the first time it failed SVA so I got a credit note which I used this time on the insurance.... Even though the credit note was for £150 it was still almost cheaper to go with a different insurer!! LOL!!
