Paid, £535 last year for insurance with Adrian Flux.

was a bit disapointed to see their offer of renewal as £496 for this year

I'm 23, 5 years no claims bonus, been driving 6 years. 106 gti ... although got 6 points for an offence 'now over 3 years ago!'.

Just done a quote on confused .com and found a quote for

£404 with admiral

and £450 with elephant

Now Adrian flux say 'Guarenteed to beat any quote' - but I cant imagine them dropping their price that much?

What do you think, should I give it a punt and try to get adrian flux to match or beat admirals quote? Shall I just go with admiral or pay the £490 for adrian flux. Adrian Flux have been a good insurer over the years.

Try Privilege, probably the same as Admiral, but worth a try.

Give flux a go. Take a printscreen of the quote so if they question it you can e-mail it to em!

Wont harm in trying to get em down...but because they say 'Guaranteed', they should have to honour it!!

I'd give them a ring. Their be able to get it down for you. Just play them off eachother. Normally takes a little while but your save over £100

If they are guarenteed to beat any quote then they'll beat it, may need proof, maybe not. If they don't then change companies.
