Hi,

I have 9 points, all for speeding. This has subsequently increased my insurance from £700 at 3 points to currently £1800 at 9 points.

Can anyone suggest where to start looking for a decent insurance quotes. I've always quoted on confused.com / gocompare.com etc and up until the start of the year quotes were still coming back at the £1200 mark, but insurance has recently gone up to about £1450 a month ago and now £1800 today.

I would like to use a broker, but not sure of where to start or who is recommended.

Thanks,

(also, there are 6 cars in the household, all with policies starting at different times - whats the best way of getting a good deal on all the cars, even if the policies are all taken out at different times.)

Lol, Both times I got caught speeding were in a bloody 1.2 Renault Kangoo Van that struggles to get up hills with a weight in the back, haha.

Even a Fiat Panda probably isn't going to be that cheap to insure. A 1.0 N reg Micra was quoting at about £700 through a price comparison whilst an S2 Exige was quoting at £1300 through Adrian Flux on a price comparison.

Does calling Adrian Flux make any difference to using the online comparison websites who can quote with Adrian Flux.

Thanks

Calling us direct is the better way because we can refer each risk on to managers ect so they can hopefully do better deals. + Pistonheads members can get 15% off so make sure you say that.

Well thats a no brainer S2 and public transport for a few years. PS its 30 when you see road lights and houses / schools and 60 everywhere else. That should ensure 9 points soon becomes 3.
