Performance direct gave me a great price

1.8 gti with mods

As I have another car that I use daily as I'm sure most of you do, I can't use my no claims bonus that I have built up on that car, and had been getting pretty high quotes elsewhere. The last time I insured it to get it to its mot a couple of months ago I used Admiral as I hold my other policy with them, which would have cost me over £500 for the year, although I cancelled after just paying for a month.

Performance direct (using a third party underwriter) insured me for £196 for a year which I was very pleased with.
This is as a 22 year old, held my (clean) license for 5 years, on a 1.8 gti with lowered suspension and upgraded alloy wheels listed as the mods, with a low mileage driven for the year.

Several hundred £££ cheaper than anywhere else so would definitely recommend trying them!

Seems a very good price. I gave up trying to run 2 cars years ago as it killed me financially and timewise.

I've used them on quite a few classics now, and have had some great prices from them

Prices depend if it's listed as classic so limited mileage etcetera. NCB. Doesn't transfer over on classic policies.
Best companies I've used are Peter Best Insurance.

And

Peter Taylor at Bishops Calway.

Both well worth ringing for classic policies.
I'm with Bishops Calway for the third time now. Very nice folks to deal with.

Cheers
