Im with A. Manning. and member of TVR club with 3k LMiles. Clean licence etc. £480 full comp.

How does this fair with the rest of you ?

If only I could get my insurance that cheap...
I had quotes ranging from £1k - £3k
Ended up getting it for £1k.

I'm 30 no claims/convictions live in London and have an underground garage. Car is 2001 4.5RR (Less than 6k miles per year).

Before I got mine I saw a few threads like this in the forums and thought I would be able to get insured quite cheaply...

It seems to make a load of difference where you live!!

Anyone in London get a quote for less than £1k?

Live in Sussex, insure with Direct Line, 3000 miles pa, 2 drivers, £550. Direct Line & Tesco insurance are one and the same (tho' I found that DL was slightly cheaper than Tesco's). Havent even thought of asking DL about track cover yet, not looking forward to that conversation, but not worrying about it until I find the time and bravery to go on a track day (did a few in the Griff, along with the Brighton Speed Trials....hmm, anyone fancy meeting up for the Speed Trials this year? Or even participating?Normally September time, if memory serves me right)

I recently took out insurance with A. Manning and on same terms as you but also garaged = £555. I tried to barter for better price but they wouldn't budge.

Interestingly, I'm 39, in Devon with a 99 4.5 paying Direct Line exactly the same. I believe Tesco use Direct Line.

My 4.0 Chim was the same too, just had to pay £10.5 admin fee to change the car on the policy.

I believe Tesco & Direct Line are both owned by Royal Bank of Scotland, hence they both use the same format for their web sites.

With Tesco, 34yrs, 4.5LW, Hampshire - no limits - ~£850. I'm now expecting it to be cheaper next year!!!

Just getting some quotes for the Cerb I am looking at and thought I would post the replies so far.

28 yo, 1 claim = accident (only me involved). Thames Valley, 10k miles and driveway kept.

Direct Line = £1100
Tesco = £1400
Endsleigh (cheapest for my BMW) = £1700
A1 (advertised as TVR friendly) = £2200

Still hoping for a <£1k quote but think I am dreaming.

Sounds as though Insurers keep it simple.

I'm another case of London, Underground, <5k ....
