Insurance Due
« on: 24 June 2013, 04:31:44 pm »
Hi Folks. Insurance renewal time. I've been with Carol Nash for years. Just thought I would ask an open question who uses who and why? Apologies if it has been covered before.

Aviva - not always cheapest, but always been pretty straight to deal with.

Was with Bike Team for years for the Fazer 600 but at this year's renewal they were not the cheapest so moved to Bennetts for £70 for the year, fully comp, commuting, garaged at night over 10 years NCD

However when I changed the 600 for the FZ1 Bennetts demanded an additional £147 which is 3 times what I was paying for the 600 per year - not impressed and I won't be renewing with them.

Best is my classic Lambretta TV175 agreed value of £5k for £48 per year with Bikesure, garaged at night and no commuting, with zero NCD free road tax as well!

Bennetts were half the cost of carol nash, but only half the cover but it's better to join the RAC for your recovery then it covers you in any vehicle even if you're a passenger.

I'm with Wicked Quotes and Equity Redstar - mainly because they're one of the few companies who'll insure me. Still costs an arm and a leg...
