I had a similar issue when I got a Eurobox last year.

Found A Manning to be most helpful and offer a mirrored NCB. I was also with Direct Line previously.

yep, i do. have just changed from direct line (deeply rubbish for the cerb) and switched to thb eggar lawson who are so great im actually not resentful about spending money on something on which id probably never claim.

talk to Steve Hallam on 0115 941 5255 and tell him i sent you. he truly is the greatest chap, its genuinely the first time ive ever got insurance and felt happy about it.

best wishes,
matt bagley

Yeah, tell me about it!

IIRC, MSM will mirror your NCB:-

Good luck.

I've been happy with my everyday car with the AA and ClassicLine (01455 639000) for my Chimaera (unlimited mileage), but just had a renewal which is £100 more than last year, so will be making those calls to one and all

tell him that!! he beat my quote by about a squillion quid in the end, i must have called and hassled him and haggled with him about a hundred times.theres a reason why he knows me as 'pain in the ar*e Bagley'(and not the reason it used to be)(i was younger then and needed the money).

honestly, i really got the sense that he couldnt do enough for me. tell him a good joke and you might even get a bit more for that...

Speak to Andrew Seakings at Norton Insurance. 0121 246 6067. He sorted my insurance and I got the benefits of the 5+ yrs NCB from my Beamer onto my Chim. Track day included etc etc. Just need to quote the policy number from your 'main car'.

Humm, track days excluding...Elephant are only £30 behind MSM Insurance (£753). Not bad for a "bigger" player. AA were the worst though at £2225. Ouch!!!

Tried Sunninghill and they are double my best quote because "Our current insurers don't like London or big cities".
