I was, bell are great on prices, just make sure you dont get through to the bombay department of their phone system 

''its a corrado'' ''a rover?'' ''no, a CORRADO'' ''is that a rover corrado sir''  :rolleyes:

But yeah, good prices, but not so good on mods, and as such i have switch to brentacre.

Yer i got a quote with Bell on my 1.6 driver and it was £1101.60 with suspension declared which is better than the £1500 ive been quoted elsewhere without suspension!

Just waiting for my renewal in the next few weeks to see what that is!

yeh, but all your mods are pretty small and cosmetic whereas mine is stuff like cam / remap and the like which bell wont cover.

I never had a problem with them really, and they do some good add ons like drive other cars third party and windscreen cover. The dont charge an admin fee for changing car either, and will let you add extra cars onto your policy for a week at a time for around 20 quid which is a bonus if your anything like me and chop and change cars a fair bit.

never really had to go through the claims process though so i cant comment on that. Get the right ppl on the phone and they are pretty helpful, but like i said, dont end up in the bombay call centre!

Just be wary of the 10 month no claims thing, not all insurers accept it a a years no claims if you switch provider.

Dec, have you tried insuring a gti with bell? i insured an 8v gti with them for 900 a year on my 19th birthday, you might get a good price then?

Yea had already decided on the 12 month one.. will this be ok for other insurers?

yea a GTI was £1500 (standard) but I cant afford to buy a GTI on top :sad:
