Brigante Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Well its that time of year again and my insurance is due for renewal My current insurer is Markerstudy through Greenlight My current policy is £658.50 with a £250 excess Did a quote on a scummy comparison site and the best quote I got was from elephant and that was £598.90 with a £350 excess. I then sought out a quote from the rival modified car company Chris Knott and they beat elephants quote bringing it down to £575, again with a £350 excess, this is from the insurer Equity Red Star Since getting the quote from Knott though, I have received my renewal quote from Greenlight, knocking over 150quid off last years premium bringing it down to £499.35 I told Chris Knott thanks but my current insurer renewal quote is below the £500 mark so I'll have to stay with them. But now Chris Knott is saying they will be happy to beat my renewal quote and I'm waiting till tomorrow to see what they offer. Are they likely to be able to beat it by much? Has anyone else had policies with either Greenlight or Chris Knott? Who is the best modified car insurer/broker or are they all the same?

FocusSmudge Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 My renewal is also due and Chris Knott were not able to be it and were not prepared to budge. They quoted me £850, Admiral (my current insurer for the past 2 years) want £500 so no brainier really. Prestige Keep Moving also wanted £800 and for an insurer that supposedly guarantee to beat any quote, I was a bit disappointed with them both.

JC600 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 what are you paying? £400 for the Focus and £120 for the Escort for the year. Both fully comp, all mods declared, and protected ncb. I've got 12 years ncb but that's only on the Focus, as you can only have it on one car. But it will start to build up on the Escort now. :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't fault your customer service but you were £300 more expensive than my cheapest quote which was a shame as you'd been recommended by family members with classic cars.

jeebowhite Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I'm with marketstudy through Adrian flux, they are pretty good. What annoys me though is the extra cost with pay monthly... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford_Man Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Can't fault your cuatomer service but you were £300 more expensive than my cheapest quote whi h was a shame as you'd been recommended by family members with classic cars. Same experience here, customer service was fantastic but they were 200.00 pound more expensive than my renewal which was a shame as they promote on here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
