Been ringing around today for Insurance too ...
I tried Flux first and they actually came in best at £476 - I initially thought this was expensive given my current insurer Hagertys were £357 inc breakdown, agreed value and track-day option ... Hagertys will no longer renew/insure the Vee hence me having to change this month ...
NOTE: I found Flux a bit vague about the club discounts and the advantage of the PFC discount. They didn't convince me these were anything than perhaps a discretionary discount and marketing exercise as I couldn't get a straigh answer as to what the base cover price was or the value of the discount. They just said, after I really pressed them, that I had been given a 10% discount which covered the PFC/club discount benefits ... Not convinced on this ... But they were still cheapest so no issue I suppose ...
Others then ...
Performance direct were £611.
Swinton came in at £740 but immediately came down to £600 when I mentioned the flux quote.
I also tried admiral but they wouldn't do multi-car due to my highly modified 2nd car but Admirals Vee only price was £650.
There were slight variances of excess and mileage but all these quotes were based on my age of 43, locked garage, 4k miles, second car, full protected no claims and modifications declared (seats, splitter and filter). BTW modifications restricted the options according to all of the insurance companies I tried.
Finally I tried Sky (who I use for the Toyota and previously used for the Vee) ... They came in at £500 which is their minimum premium for the Clio and so I negotiated free legal cover and unlimited mileage - the combined excess was £250. I think, on balance, I will go for this and accept the increase from Hagertys - all the insurance companies said Hagertys was a brilliant deal, as I thought it was so a shame they still can't offer it
I may try A-Plan tomorrow to complete the picture ...
In summary Flux came in best for basic cover, but Sky (who I have used for many years) are competative with unlimited mileage and I know them ... A more expensive Vee year for me it would seem ...
Oh and one final bit of information, if you use classic insurance where your no claims is 'parked', you can only get the no-claims back within 2 years - after which is expires. This is also the case if you are not insured for a period of 2 years i.e. you have a company car, you lose your no-claims after 2 years of non use. Several companies told me this so fortunately I won't lose mine as I was only on Classic cover for 1 year.
