Guys,

Who is everyone in London using to insure their E46? My gf is about to swap her car for an E46 325ci/330ci/clubsport and we are also just about to move to London but the quotes on the comparison sites are coming out at £1400!

My E46 was with Elephant as is my E60 now. I paid about £800 fully comp, 9 yrs protected no claims, on a 330ci Sport convertible, 51 reg est. value £6k. It had a tracker (not that that seemed to make any difference). London E3, car kept on street, 35 year old office worker, no claims points etc.

In the 10 years I've lived in London I have almost always been with Elephant/Admiral (same group) it seems for my age, Postcode and typical car they are almost unbeatable. Went with Adrian Flux once on my mk3 GTI anniversary but got stiffed when cancelling policy and haven't been back to them since.

It does seem to be very postcode dependent in London, I moved last year E2 to E3 which I would generally consider a quieter/safer area, older population etc, and the change of address increased my premium by about £80 grrr.

I can echo to a large extent what is being said above, Elephant/Admiral (same company) offer good quotes for London. I am paying around £600 on my 530i.

When I re-newed a month or so ago the cheapest I could find was Admiral on a multi-car policy.

No one else came close.

I'm based in Manchester though.
