Fair quote ?

[DB S3]

Guys

Sorry to be a bore (especially as this is my first post in this forum !) but wondered if i could canvass some collective opinions ?

After 3 fantastic years, I am hoping to shortly upgrade from an S3 to a Chim 450 (er, should have thought about that when i first registered my sign-on name a few years ago !!!).

Live in Zone 2 with a secure under-ground car-park. 30 years old and car is a weekend toy. S3 was $450 to insure on a classic policy with 5/- miles.

I realise i don't live in the best postcode and the chimaera is worth 3 times the S , but just wondering if there is anyone else out there with comparative stats to me ? ie central london, 30 years old and driving say 5000 miles, chimaera 450. Best quote i've had is $1090.

So far I've checked classic line, Peart, Heritage, tvr-insurance, Sunninghill, A-one, Norton and Lancaster.

Happy to go with it, but would be grateful to hear of anyone in similar situation to me and how competitive my quote looks.

Thanks in advance

I insured mine with A Manning when I first picked her up around 4 years ago. Cost me £475 at the time, but the following year with a claim, but with protected no claims, it shot upto 1300. Cheeky sods.

I'm 28, zone 3, car parked on drive, 6k per year & Elephant is about £800 p/a for a 4.0 (6 years ncb)
Swiftcover & Privilege were cheaper but wouldn't cover non-std wheels & exhaust.

Try A-Plan Insurance, speak to Anne-Therese. They have just given me a quote £200 cheaper than my previous policy + unlimited mileage!!!! Their telephone number is: 01635 874646
Lots of this in 2006:

Think I'm paying £850 for 12K miles, with 6 yrs no claims......28 years old (when I insured) but it's a TS postcode and is garaged.....privalage were by far the cheapest ( about £400 cheaper than Manning)

Privilege were by far the cheapest for me also (30yrs old, £550 with protected no claims, car on driveway) - go via their website though they wanted £200 more when I got a quote on the phone! Won’t touch cars with any mods though unfortunately.

Cerby - you is the man !!!! might owe you a for that little gem !!

A-Plan $859 - that's more like it !!!

Thanks for all your help guys
