Greenlight were about £100 too much for me.
Cheapest for me was with AXA.

Greenlight are a bunch of enthusiasts - They specialise in modified cars and understand what various mods are and what they do. They insure like-for-like. But they are in the insurance business and if you live in a higher risk postcode it's reasonable for them to take that into account.

I'm very happy with them.

Im in a very low risk area though - very low crime rate etc. Even though I always put the car in the garage, they were still a little more expensive for me. They also put me at £500 excess!!
AXA was over £100 cheaper, with only £250 excess.
Guess they are not cheap for everyone!

25, 2 years ncb, driving 2 years.

Last year my insurance was £2.4k with quickfit,  they sent me my renewal the other day and it was £3.3k :shocked:!

So i went on the usual price comparison sites and the cheapest was quickfit at £1.8k with most been £3kish.

I then deceided to do a quote with greenlight and to my suprise it was £770 :shocked: i nearly fell off my chair, so this morning I bought the insurance and
am well chuffed  :grin:

I have just renewed my insurance with Greenlight - I couldn't be happier with them - I've updated my long list of mods and my power to 260 bhp and there is no change to the costs. It makes such a difference to know they know what various car mods are.
