Thanks Kev! You are the health and safety chap ?
Ollie
Yea, I work for a Health & Safety company as the IT Manager.
Health & Safety - your worst nightmare wasn't it?!
I always knew those health and safety blokes didn't follow their own advice, novas aren't exactly 5 star euro NCAP material are they lol
It made me chuckle when I listened to the call again..! I blamed you directly for not being allowed behind the start line at Santa Pod anymore lol A bit harsh but never mind!Quote:

i know you dont do laid up cover but is there anything on offer for the people who dont use there cars over the winter?
/\ low milage policys. IIRC thats what RJ does
hmm i see. will need to call them tommorow.
I do, but I use mine over winter, albeit not as much. Its a second car to me, so does minimal mileage.Quote:

OK Dan, bare in mind we may be offering a better level of cover and customer service.. however if you are motivated just by the price then go with them.
Thanks
I've kept your quote reference for that reason. I've heard a few bad things about elephant but had no problems with admiral who have been very helpful, so it'll be down to price between the two of you :).
Well Sky's come up trumps again!
So my Passat is due to re start in October, It's with Flux, last year it was £320 FC this years renewal came in the post and is £475! WTF lol
so after a quick Internet comparison site i found a quote of £290, rang Sky and got it for £280FC so i have my XE with them and my daily Passat now, but the 1.2L is with Flux as no one could beat there £240FC on it.
Scott
wouldnt insure me on a nova rang them and the guy asked me what car i wanted to insure, told him a nova didnt even say what spec or engine size and they said they wouldnt insure me
:mad: :cry:
I'm pretty sure you gave more details than that for them to refuse! Even when they refused me they went through a fair few details to make sure first, I'm guessing you haven't held your license for over 2 years?
I'm guessing we struggled with your postcode but thank you for trying us and apologies we were unable to help.Quote:

Ollie, the vx220 folks might be wanting your services... do I get comission for telling you that lol
If you give me the name of the club and email contact for the main man then I may be able to reward you in some way yes ;)Quote:

Plus they have some sort of deal with CK, but I've never got a straight answer as to who is still getting the comission etc lol. Its all a farse in taht respect but the members are keen for good prices so it gets you business I guess :)
You reckon you can beat £600 FC on a Vectra GSi no mods, age 23, 4 years NCB, one SP30 3+ years ago, SS9 postcode?
Its very hard to say, your details will need to be taken in full and and run through the computer system. Almost every question you are asked at the quotation stage can make a difference to the price.Quote:

Hi Ollie maybe worth a try, here goes!
29, 4 years ncb,clean license, homeowner,employed,etc. wanting to insure a standard nova gte in "WA9" adrian flux(highway ins)(who i have been with since i passed my test in 2003)quote me(as its been off the road for a while) £395 f/c,
a quick search on go-compare brings up "the green ins company" @ $443 f/c with details given above?
looking to insure this as a second car(weekend car say,as im currently insured on a van for work purposes)or possisbly a quote to insure both @ once (dont know if that works)?
Edit: should be a member "again" soon enough(if it helps Lol)
^ apologies but the 'WA' area is an excluded postcode for us.
i have a xe nova that i only use 6 months of the year, the other 6 months during winter it sits in the garage, if i insure this with you is there any sort of reduced rate for the 6 months that it is in the garage over winter?
thanks matt
Now Fred, If sky wont do the above adrian flux will. As your garage is on your property they do whats called a "laid up policy" which you can transfer to from your main policy once the car comes off the road. This drastically reduces the cost for 6 months of the year. But is only available to those who have garages at home not elsewhere.Quote:

Feel free to PM me your contact details if you would like for me to arrange a call back to go through the details?
Thanks

Flux said they wouldn't do laid up cover for me if the car wasn't garaged at my house as I tried to do it while I was rebuilding it. I'd get checking Gareth.
