Try Bell.co.uk and admiral.co.uk, they seem to be about the cheapest.

im with admiral £450ish 26 years old, 4years ncb, oxford, 2002 S8 but the renewal quote was £950, amazing what a phone call can do
i found the best way was to ass about on elephant.co.uk then ring admiral as the own elephant and will match it. by far the best money saver is to put older second drivers on (even tho i wont let anyone else drive it lol)

Yup... I've been playing Elephant and Admiral off over the last couple of years... Chapest I could get this year was £650, but I do 20+K a year with business use and she had a bump last year.... D3 is also a bit more expensive than a D2.

I am with Admiral as well. I am 28, with no no claims because what I have is in use on my minis (cant use no claims on more than one car...) But I do have 5yrs + clean proven company car driving. Which apparently helps but I dont know how much. I have business use and my 22yr old girlfriend on the policy and its £800. I do however, live in east London which doesnt help.
Ohh and sod the Admiral multi car policy! both SPI mini and audi are with admiral, but when i add the two onto a multicar policy they want £110 more than insuring them separately?!!! the insurance on my SPI mini is only £125 fully comp! Whats up with that?! They almost double it on multicar I personally hate insurance companies. They are the scum of the universe in my book. Because Insurance is compulsory they seem to forget that your actually paying them for a service. In any other industry their behavior towards their customers would not be tolerated. The sort of turn around times I hear about when people need to actually use their insurance is down right discraceful! Sorry.... Rant over!
