Insurance renewal at the end of the month, already with admiral. Have a 210 '05 MS jcw, 35 y/o and insurance already is around £600 so probably go down again. Greenlight also gave me a quote which I could probably get lower.
So, tried Adrian Flux which a few people have banged on about.
The quote, £1627

Yeah right 'o, maybe they steer clear of N.I. drivers. Adrian can flux off

Woo.. thats a crazy amount... If your cars not modded up other than the JCW kit, try Swiftcover.com they were cheapest i found..

simeds · Apr 1st, 2008, 10:53 AM

try e-sure, they gave me a cheap quote for my 210 jcw

nylo · Apr 1st, 2008, 10:59 AM

A few of the NI guys (myself included) are with Quinn Direct. Might be worth trying them?

hoojkel · Apr 1st, 2008, 11:11 AM

Cheers everyone, swiftcover unfortunately don't cover N.I. drivers, haven't tried e-sure yet, might give Quinn Direct another looky here Nylo as I think I did get a quote before from them.

e-sure don't do over here either.

mines very similar...

Unfortunately in N.Ireland a lot of insurers won't cover us although some are starting such as Directline etc. Admiral have been the best so far for me but a lot of the other insurers from the mainland won't insure us which leaves us in a worse position than most. Probably why Adrian Flux was soooo expensive and that was before I even added the mod list, this was just an initial quote??

westycoopers · Apr 11th, 2008, 07:35 AM

thats really bad for adrian flux, i have a cheaper quote from them on the same car with body mods ford cheaper and im only 21 with 6 points.
does'nt sound like adrian flux, did you say something to upset them

hoojkel · Apr 11th, 2008, 09:04 AM

Not at all, it was an online quote I put in, the one problem I believe for them is the fact i'm in N.Ireland as a lot of Insurers bump the price up for cover over here. Greenlight was v reasonable but some other insurers are way too high on they're quotes and some don't touch us at all.

nylo · Apr 11th, 2008, 11:03 AM

Yup, the really annoying thing is when you spend half an hour filling in an online form only for them to tell you, "sorry, we don't cover N. Ireland"

Did you try Quinn?

hoojkel · Apr 11th, 2008, 12:18 PM

totally agree nylo, very annoying when that happens. I did try Quinn and they were roughly the same as the others, the fact that admiral give me a 10 month accelerator policy does sit nicely though.

r1_kde · Apr 23rd, 2008, 06:15 PM

to add to the topic,

I am 25 as is my partner we are married and own a house, have a very good income, I own my own business and she is employed. oh and I have 7 years no claims bonus....

I live in a nice part of solihull too and the car lives in a garage

so why the heck am I being turned down for insurnce?? well swift cover say I am too young to insure my JCW! how bloody stupid.

well I will take my business else where, by the by privilage have quoted me £500 odd so may go with them for the 5th year

ADDED, comapnies which wont insure me...
