Car insurance ideas please

I'm fortunate to drive a rather nice car, sporty and expensive, thanks to work.

Downside of that is insurance premiums, which although are actually quite reasonable (it's my age ), I'd like to reduce.

I've tried:
Halifax (current insurers)
First Alternative (very close but more)
Norwich Union (20% more)
Hastings Direct (way off the mark)
Liverpool Victoria (no loading for hubby's conviction but still a little more)
Admiral (ouch)
More Than (wouldn't quote)
Direct Line (wanted a tracker)
Sainsbury's (very close but more)

Any other ideas? I might try Carole Nash....

Maybe try that faxing technique Lizzie?

You do tend to get better quotes out of companies than you do when you ring. And then go back to the company you like and ask them for the best quote at the end and see how you go.

Lizzie,

http://www.911virgin.com/insurance.htm

I used this list when I came within a gnats whisker of buying a 993 a few years ago (oooh the good old days ... lol) ....

911 Virgin is run by a guy called Henry and what his lot don't know about Porkers isn't worth knowing .....

HTH
