Try Privilege, i was 30 when i 1st joined them. My qoute was £356 on 172 and i think it was £3 more on a 182. Just had my renewal in and it has droped to £336, not a masive difference but it's about £150-£200 cheaper than everywhere else i've tried.

Oh and you need 4 or more years no claims, i have 12years,

I use privilege, 33yrs, max ncb, £313, but renewal quote in print was 390 !

Churchill will guarantee to beat any quote at the moment, not sure of conditions tho.

Good luck, I tried everyone, live in a good postcode area, and no points. Noone got close to privilege, even Direct line who do Privilege's underwriting, hmmmmm.

Did u try canceling your current insurance then taking out another policy with same company? my bro saved £115. They want new customers so will better prices for new quotes

NEVER EVER RENEW, always cancel your renewal and set up a brand new policy, its always cheaper at new business. Insurance companies don't make money from new business, they make money from renewals. Just get a new quote with the same company or a different company.

Elepahnt were the same this year, my renewal was more than what I paid with them last year! Privilage beat it, was about £300 cheaper!

Wow people are gettin some good prices, after being on phone all day and filling out forms online i have got a quote of £600 fully comp from GSI insurance, tried greenlight but they are closed til monday so now the question is do i wait til monday? or do i take the GSI quote? not sure if greenlight could beat that.

Anyway a big thank you for all advice, nice to know there is help when needed.
 
I'm with Elephant (part of the admiral,bell group) they did exactly the same to me:dapprove:
When I called up to moan at them I got put through to an Indian woman who was a total moron:mad: she didn't have any power to do anything at all - I had already got another quote thru them on line (which was loads cheaper) quoted it & she tried to charge more than the renewal letter (the silly cow wouldn't even listen to me about mu online quote !)

I told her that I was wasting my time, took her name. I called up the next day, went straight to the supervisor (elephant handler lol) gave the Indian womans name & said how p*ssed of I was with her attitude & incompetence, gave the ref number of the quote i'd had - suddenly the quote matched - I then asked them to beat it or i'd be off - I got another £50 off for my troubles. Result:)

Decided to wait til today and speak to greenlight, didn't think they would beat the 600 quote i had but they came back with £557 fully comp with mods declared (tints,viper,exhaust). I asked him to repeat the quote and shouted i would have it, well chuffed with that. The chap i spoke to was well friendly and very polite.

Big thank you to Greenlight Insurance.
