    Default Insurance

    Hi All,

    I'm off to pick up Willow's, now my, car on Wednesday. Can't wait! However, I need to sort out my insurance beforehand. Which is the best and most competitive company to go for?

    Cheers

    Rob

    I'd start with Peter Best, http://www.peterbestinsurance.co.uk/ many members have found them the most competitive, though it must be said not all.

    Be clear on any modifications and limited mileage, classic policy may deliver best result

    Adrian Flux were the best quote for the 260, and also my Mustang which they have been insuring for eight years.

    Default Go Compare, useless!

    Cheers Chaps,

    I've used Adrian Flux before when I had my Tickford Turbo Capri. However, they weren't competitive this time coming in at £550, on 3K a year mileage limit. The best has been Lancaster at £371 for the same deal though I need to confirm by phone. Still gotta try Peter Best as couldn't get through before. All the rest were circa £650 and above. Bell came in at £1011 .

    Any others worth trying?

    Cheers

    Rob

    I pay a lot less than that and I don't have any mileage restrictions. Are you quite young?

    You really do just have to try them all - the "best one" totally depends on your exact circumstances.

    Lancaster was one of my worst quotes: £800 (SDP).

    Bell was my best non-classic quote @ £470 including business usage.
