anyway elephant website came up cheapest at £711 not too bad but still too much so i made a few adjustments added a few named drivers and got it down to £580 the best i thought id get considering my mishap last year.

i gave admiral a call to tell them of there lost business, only to find out that elephant are a sister company to admiral and they would match my quote so by the time we have gone over a few details i got a final quote of £407

who said shopping about never pays

saved myself £578 tonight
Nice one mate. Can i ask how you managed to call admiral with an Elephant quote of £580 and then getting admiral to come down to £407?

Can i be really nosey and ask what voluntary excess you've selected? Was the additional driver a woman, and do you declare it as parked in the garage or drive?

Have my insurance renewal coming up so would be good to get some tips.

Best quote so far is £478 (Elephant.co.uk) - fully-comp, No-claims protected, insured in swindon, on-street parking, 10k miles a year, £150 voluntary excess and the gf as an additional driver. No claims or convictions in the last 3 years.

Cheers,

Oli
