Admiral

I got a policy on a MK3 Golf GTI for £500 TPFT, with zero no claims bonus from Admiral. Parking on a street in central London. Not a bad price I think.

i have a multi car policy with admiral and their price on the two cars was actually lower than most quotes i could find on one. never had to make a claim but when setting it up they seemed really helpfull, although i struggled to understand the chap as he was so welsh, but uk based call centres are a plus.

yep, i couldn't fault their service at all.

For central London, high crime area! and parking on the street, my price of £500 was a bargain, a crappy standard car was coming out at the same!!!

yes, but if you had that many people in any town/city, it would be the same. crap hey. the strange thing is, I rarely see piles of broken window glass in my area so I don't know if crime stats are rising or dropping.

Probably going with Admiral for my insurance this year as they beat everyone else by about 10% and didn't want a stupid voluntary excess. £257 Fully comp, protected no claims, £150 excess. Does help being 36...  :smiley:
