Renewal due on 22nd and got my renewal docs through from them last week, quoting £597, down by £295 from last year!!

Did the usual phone round yesterday morning just to see if it could be beaten.

Adrian Flux
Spoke to some fuckwit who didn't have a clue about even fairly simple engine mods, finally quoted me £925, nearly double greenlight.

Performance Direct
Refused to quote. Really pissed me off, as in their ad (in fast ford, where readers are somewhat likely to want to insure, errr, fast fords?!) they list modified and performance as being specialities.

Brentacre
Really sound guy on the phone. Asked few questions and was totally straight with me when I told him renewal quote that he wouldn't even be able to get close to it, and advised to def take that quote. Can't fault that honesty.

Hagerty
Refused to quote due to % power increase.

Footman James
Again, refused to quote.

Chris Knott
Took 3 attempts of over 20 rins to get through, and when I did no quote as they would do it through Highway, same as Greenlight.

Sky
Guy called "Danny" answered and hung up on me twice. If they're like that when you're trying to spend money, what happens if you need to claim?

A Plan
Called my local branch and went through full details. Was promised a call back "within an hour". Heard nothing.

The car is only a good stage 3 spec, but has the brakes and handling mods to cope, its not a fire spitting 600 bhp monster! I'm 25, its garaged, less than 3k miles and I have 2 years NCB to put on it as a second car, so its not like the biggest risk they're likely to take on.

Greenlight
Were excellent. Lines were busy so my number was taken and I was promised a call back. It had been a little while so I tried again but they were closed. I feared the worst, but then half an hour after closing time, Tony called and ran through everything. Updated all the details on the mods, all the policy details including agreed value etc and got it all sorted.

Nice guy to speak to, knowledgeable about the mods and obviously willing to go the extra mile for the customer staying late on a saturday where I'm sure there are other things he'd rather be doing.

Not to mention the best price by far.

So save your time (and blood pressure ) and go straight to the best is my advice.
