does that mean you love car insurance deb :-)))

Hi I have just having the fun job of getting the annual insurance quotes for my car. Who are you with & are you pleased with them? Penny

Hi Deb Thought I had cut for cut & paste but it didn't work so had to re type :-(

Hi Penny, I usually change every year. Although this year I stayed with Kwik Fit as they matched a cheaper quote than they had given me. Usually put insurance through a search engine like confused * c o m. :-)

Hi Penny. Im with, i think... Dial direct, or the other way around. Within my price i get full RAC gold cover and compared to other quotes i think its good. Never had to claim on the insurance , so dont know how they are in helping deb :-)

I'm with It's 4 Me. Found them on Confused(.)com Quoted me a lot cheaper than major companies. Haven't had to claim yet though so don't know what the service is like. .

Hi Sorry been getting quote from confused - :-( sadly it's more expensive then other quotes. They have varied from £244 to £339! Penny

At the moment I am with Norwich Union who arent too bad I suppose and I pay about 330 pound a year fully comp, but thats paying on monthly installments which does work out a bit dearer, and thats for a seven seater Seat Alhambra, but I have recently been told for my kind of vehicle that Tesco are a lot cheaper, so will probably give them a try next time around.

IWe go through a local company called A Plan. They find us the cheapest and best deals, had no problems at all. They recheck every year to see if there is a better deal for us. With the RAC separately for over 30 years and they are excellent on the few occasions we have had to call them out.

We use footman James for our 2cv6 Got it on classic car insurance fully comp + breakdown+ legal thingy= £117 new quote for this year:)) They do ordinary car insurance as well! Diane :)

In 2004 I got over 35 online car insurance quotes and ended up staying with Direct Line. The insurance companies for women drivers came out as the most expensive. One company called Fortis came out pretty cheap but they insurance through brokers. Maureen

Have just reinsured with Sheila's Wheels and saved a fortune.

Hi Thanks for all your suggestions. Sheila's wheels is my cheapest so far. Couple of weeks to go. Penny

Elephant has come up quite well for us recently.

Had a lot of trouble trying to get my 17 yr old insured, we had horrendous quotes, some refused to quote but finally got a good quote from Asda (eight hundred and something) Chris

mine's due next week so I'm currently trawling all the sites too. confused*com really annoyed me, asking for info like when my hubby passed his driving test... (more than 30 years ago, is that relevant?) my cheapest quote looked like More Than, but when I amended the voluntary excess to what's on my renewal notice (Frizells) the quote was more than I currently pay. Comparing like-for-like, with same excess & protected no claims etc, probably Direct Line (unfortunately! because I've heard some rubbish things about settlement values if you have a write-off) Sheila's wheels about the same - do they bump it up for putting hubby on?

Sheila's wheels did not bump it up for me putting hubby on - and I chose a low excess. With them you get handbag cover - £300 if your bag gets nicked and you also get a rather fetching tax disc holder free! lol

Hubby asked me the same question!! Perhaps I'll try a quote without him to see how much he has cost!! Just tried it - extra £20 !

I had Norwich Union Direct quoote me happpy - they came in at about £80 cheaper than Diamond who I was with and they do a 14-month insurance thing for the same as 12 Downside is that I now have to renew my insurance straight after Christmas instead of October but there you go I was gutted cos they started running the Sheila's Wheels ads just after I renewed and I REALLY want to be with them Z x
