Insurance! cheapest quote ever?

PhilLew · 08-08-2009, 09:59 AM

Just renewed my insurance this week,

M600, garaged, 3K miles a year, 1 rider, no pillion, 2 year NCD.

my renewal quote was £124 for TPF&T (A-Quote insurance who were cheapest last year) but as I had only paid £104 last year and having another years NCD I decided that was too much and so time to shop around again.

Hit confused.com and every price bar one was cheaper than the renewal I had been quoted, most of the twenty or so quotes were between £65 and £75, I plumpped for Bennets at £69 as they were the biggest, most reputable of the cheaper prices.

Whilst confiming the details on their site I tried changing some of the variables (voluntery excess, milage etc) to see if that made any difference. It didn't, even changing to fully comp only put the price up to £72!

....So, hit confused again for fully comp quotes and .....

£65 fully comp with Swinton bikes!

That's the cheapest comprehensive (or tpf&t) insurance I've ever heard of.....unless you know different?

Just shows, it pays to shop around.
