well I know why, cos Quinn went under last year and they were the cheapest, therefore theres less competition, this was partly the xcuse then the bird carried on...

"and theres been a lot of crash for cash claims and thats pushed premiums up"

nice

got a price of £1250, so its heading down a tad

(cab-line)

What gets me is the punters think we run on normal car insurance. When I tell them we don't get much change out of £1500 they soon shut the F*** up.

The deal you mentioned with Aviva, we have access to and can quote you over the phone.

Be mindful though, the deals are not amazing if you live in city centre post code or have little no claims discount!

Give us a call if you like. Tel. 0844 873 3929

Thanks

Tony.
