Insurance (Chris Knott)

[lozz]

I cocked up last year not going through Chris Knott

They quoted me lots cheaper, but paperwork said money up front
Only afterwards did I find out from Gary they do instalments

Won't forget this year as over £700 to insure a 406 when i'm 42, and have full NCB and not in a silly area is crazy

£700 ? how does that work . im 27 years old with 6 years NCB and paying £539 premium (add APR% onto that for paying the finance company monthly payments)

i really would love to know how these insurance companys work. when one can give you a £539 quote yet another for exactly the same thing comes in at £1800

"If" I insured a boggo 406 110 HDi then i'd be looking at less than £400
I got loaded for :
the leather
the spoiler
the wheels
strut brace blah blah blah

Personally I think they're taking the preverbial - Direct Line if you're interested ( although I fear this may send Highlander off on one lol )

You Might be best off contacting Tim & chris knott then,
they dont hit hard on Modified cars,

Admiral were best with me when I first got the Coupe. Their renewal was cheaper than everyone elses, even after I declared mods for the car, so I stuck with them.

I was insured with Admiral for years in an Almera GTI even with a couple of mods... They were stupidly cheap! but for some reason why are stupidly expensive (for me) now... odd!

My son has a nice BMW 318i ES, and decided to economise so bought a 406 Rapier estate. Bit ratty but will tidy up, phoned his insurance who quoted 36 quid less than his Beemer. £850. Other brokers coming out at 1300. One said it's because of the engine size, so the 406 is 2 litre same as the beemer, 90 bhp against 138????????????????
Ridiculous. So how come a 307 2.0 hdi 90, same engine is only £600?
Another broker said it was because of the luggage capacity and it turns dangerous when fully loaded.
In truth I think the insurance ratings are just plain wrong. Good job he didn't go for the 110 beast.

Just had my renewal through from Direct Line and they want another £130 this year - they can feck off

Now where's the number for Chris Knott

[lozz]

Chris is on another forum im amember of,

do you want me to give him a nudge and direct him to this forum?

Might get a good club discount if were cheaky enough perhaps ?


Yeah or nay ?

Hi Lozz

Just been on the coupe club, and noted down the tel no. and I think you quote 885 on the phone for discount if I read right

[lozz]

Ive just sent chris a Nudge,

perhaps he will pop in,

hope the admin dont mind!

[plod]

Direct line want £835 with the credit fees or £69ish a month

Money Supermarket - Premium choice £444.77 or £507.58 with credit fees (£75 deposit and £39 a month)

Performance Direct - Highway £497.98 or £567.56 with credit fees (£124.50 deposit and 9x £49.23)

[lozz]

Try Green insurance, mate,

theyre based in Scotland,

if you do alow ish amount of Miles they do a good deal,

[plod]

Looked at that Lozz but they'll only insure standard cars

Had Admiral ring me this morning ( think on back of the three comparison sites I used at the weekend)
Best they could do with credit fees and everything is £692 but with £100 XS
Others have been cheaper but with £350 XS which I don't fancy
Oh and admiral said I'd have to remove strut brace
I said its for safety not performance but he said their system red flagged it

[lozz]
