Saved myself £300 nicker a year.

Shame I did all this before reading Simon London's excellent post.

Can\'t complain
 

Thats a massive saving.. result fella... how long did it take for you to ring around and get it down?

Simon,

As I only rang those few companies it didn't take me long.

I figured most people who were gonna quote me a realistic figure were gonna be on Zenith so I stopped at £300 off last year's premium rather than several hours recounting my speeding convictions to all the different people.

As I said above, your post was excellent and could have meant more savings without all the questionning hassle. Nice one mate. Will use that next year.

The £300 nicker that I saved has rebuilt my bike after my weekend 'off' at Croft with beer money to spare, so chuffed enough.
