Our policy a long while back went through Quotelinedirect

Always be aware you need to name your regular car and change that when required, there are limits on many policies for specific cars (my friends excludes American Imports, RS models and Jap imports) all other vehicles you drive which aren't your named car on most small traders policies need to have a policy of their own, as in be insured in someone's name.
