Don't just renew insurance.

Got my reminder through from Admiral £346.
Last year £270. Went on all the comparison sites, well 3 of them, and cheapest £252.
Phoned Admiral and straight away £267.
Then phoned Adrian Flux £250.
So now I'm with Mr Flux.

I run my details through 3 comparison websites EVERY year, it doesn't take long once you've done it the first time.

Then a quick phonecall to the best offer, and it usually drops a little more.

This year I insured my 3 year Mercedes Sprinter on a 5,000ml policy, fully comp, prot. ncb. £185 !!!

You've gotta check EVERY year or they'll make ya pay for it!!!

Dont forget always call the company you select on a comparison website and confirm all your details as they often suddenly decide its not what has been quoted for what ever reason.

As for one of those companies mentioned on here I wouldnt touch, their quotes have been well out of touch and then last week got a letter from them asking if I was renewing with them and also an email and I always tell companies no marketing emails or letters especially when Im not a customer. This very same company is supposed to be specialist for our type of vehicle or sports vehicles especially modified. If they send anymore marketing post or emails Ill be taking it up with them as they have a reperesentative on here, nuff said.
