Done.
I'm not sure what went on before without listening to the call but based on the details we have on screen for you, if we were looking at this today our rate would be £359.50 including comprehensive Breakdown Cover. I appreciate that's higher than your best quote but it's not too far off.

What can I say, the market fluctuates. If you went with £308 all in you got a better deal anyway (which is good).

Interesting about the breakdown cover included though, what does that cover? (national/europe, home start, onward travel etc?).

So, mine's up for renewal...

What's the likelihood of CK being able to quote for a...
- 43 year old male
- 3 points
- 1 non-fault accident
- 10+ years protected NCB

...on a...
- 2006 Z4MC with modified suspension, brakes, exhaust, intake (suspension & brakes not yet fitted, as it will depend on how good/bad the premiums are)

...for...
- Fully comprehensive European cover (including fully comp at the 'Ring)
- 25,000 SDPC & Business Class 1
- Parked on road/drive in Liverpool L25 postcode

...and just for a target premium, if you can get it below £1000, then I'm all your's :thumbsup:

All sounds fine except the cover at the Nurburgring. I'd also need to check the parking requirements at L25. What's the next bit of the postcode L25 *?

0PT (i.e. Hunts Cross, NOT Halewood).

Although the car is parked at the (current) office at TW8 9GS or TW8 0QU more often than it's at L25 (4:3 ratio).

The 'Ring cover is the bit I'm finding difficult, as in the past it was a grey area where it wasn't specifically excluded in the policy documents / Ts&Cs. However most exclude it specifically now, and the £150/day 1st party only cover is getting expensive (2 x 3 day trips a year = £900 extra even if the 'Ring ends up being closed for the day and I don't get any laps), and doesn't cover anything other than my car, which might be the minor cost in a multi-car accident if I'm found at fault.

I'm afraid that postcode is one of the ones where we need the car to be garaged overnight. Sorry about that. We're constantly badgering underwriters to give us the tools we need and more flexibility so this may mean we can quote in the future. In any case we couldn't help with the 'ring cover.

No problem, and I understand.

It's still cheaper to pay more for my insurance than it is to move or build a wider garage.

They don't build garages that you can actually get a car in these days do they?!

I can't blame the builder, as I built it, but the land was the limiting factor.

CKI did me a great deal this week on my Audi TT renewal / chopped £60 off my lowest quote from Classicline & threw in the full breakdown cover + euro cover :thumbsup:
We,ve had 1 or more car policy,s with CKI each year for the last 10 years & that,s generally down to price & cover offered , occasionally a wildly OTT renewal forced us elsewhere but generally they are competitive & easy to deal with .
My biggest gripe is the automated phone line system :x it,s annoying & takes too long to get to the point of your call :cry:
What,s wrong with
"Hello CK I "
" Hi " "please could i discuss my car insurance ? "
"of course , what is your postcode or policy ref ? "
which is how it is at Classicline 8)
