Was bored in December, and ojc posted that Brentacre are ace - So I gave them a ring.
Just phoned up them to confirm and pay for my new policy, which starts at midnight.
Cost me £1300 TPFT - 12,000 Annual Miles, 150bhp limit, All mods covered and can add anything I want. This is of course covering the XE engine which will be going in soon!
I even stuck a couple of mods on there that I haven't even got yet  . The best bit was that I could do through, and literally tell him exactly what I had on the car, where the parts came from and makes. And he knew exactly what I was on about. Much better than phoning Asda last year and them asking where the Side repeaters go.
Well chuffed.

£1300 on a 1.2?
Sounds kinda bad, I paid that for FC on my corsa.

Ok I didnt see the 2.0 part. Thats a very fair price then. And TPFT should be fine as corsa parts are easy to find.

Bill & Kerry? They are awesome, they know exactly what your talking about. They do specialist insurance for Fords as well, a lot of the RS boys are insured with them as well.

They are very good.
Adrian flux sent my renewall through the other week, the price was £1700 FC.
I called Brentacre and they came up with £1150 FC with protected NCB.
I call adrian flux and told them the price , they said they would not match it without proof as it was so cheap Brentacre sent me proof called up Adrian Flux and they wer enot impressed , had to go to the manager and then they came back and said they would do it for £1140

I have just moved from Brentacre to HIC saved over £300 acrsoss my 2 policys, also got drive any vehicle which I wasnt getting with Brent.
Thought it was odd as they had always been so cheap in the past, phoned them up and they couldnd get near my HIC quote.

They're both underwritten by Highway. I presume the comissions are different - Hence the difference in price!
