    Audi-Sport.net - still in Chris Knott's Top 10

    Add one to the AS.Net numbers, I don't think I mentioned I was a member when I signed up! I've been with CK for the last 3 years, and the only comment I'd have is that the renewal prices are crap Both of my renewal quotes have more than the previous year's premium which, for someone who's...

    Recommend a tracker

    For the price of one, you're probably best off going with an insurer that doesn't insist on one - unless you're going to save £200+ a year by having one. Is an S1 really valuable enough to need a tracker? I thought they were only really bothered with for cars above the £50k mark. (Not that I'm...

    Chris Knott - 1 year review

    Hi whoever it was who replied to me from CK I see your point, and I understand that you're the broker not the insurer, so it's not entirely in your control: I just think that if you could "only" get a £50 discount when the insurer was willing to discount it £200 in the end (and presumably still...

    Chris Knott - 1 year review

    So 12 months ago I took out a policy with Chris Knott, from a discussion on this forum, and I'm about to renew with them. Here are my thoughts 1) Customer service is excellent. They can occasionally be a little slow to answer the phones, though, and more than once I've had to call back after it...

    GAP Insurance - from a car dealer? Really?!

    So how does this work if, say, I already have GAP insurance on a car I purchased new, which is due to run out in 12 months. Can I take out a policy still, after 4 years of ownership, and how is the value calculated?

    Good man. Someone who acted upon our post!

    And that, unfortunately, is why I won't even consider getting a quote with Prestige. After having a completely ****** time trying to get even vaguely reasonable insurance at 18-20, my money now goes to companies who at least make an attempt to be fair, even if it costs me a little extra now...

    FAO Chris Knott ins

    Hi I can't get to the phone atm to check with you, so I thought I'd leave this here... I'm moving house soon, and obviously will be informing you a little closer to the time. I just wanted to check, though, whether my premium will increase/decrease as a result of the move. Assuming that all...

    Gap insurance

    I've got GAP insurance, but since my car was bought outright I've probably taken a slightly different product to you - I didn't have to worry about paying off the loan if my car is a total loss, so my insurance was more to avoid me taking the full depreciation hit if I wrote it off in the first...

    Is there any hope for me?

    That Leeds postcode is a big part of it, I'd imagine - you need NCB to make those postcodes even vaguely sensible.

    young driver on an Audi

    Mu first insurance was £2196 on a £4k 1.2 Clio with 70bhp... that was daylight robbery, and taking into account inflation would be roughly £2620 today.

    young driver on an Audi

    Postcode makes far more of a difference than people expect, btw: at 22, my insurance cost £1000, then doubled when I moved postcode area...

    young driver on an Audi

    Could you not take out an insurance policy, wait a month until the points are off, cancel and get your money back minus £25 admin fee and then take out a new policy? I've never seen any rules against doing that.

    young driver on an Audi

    "Youngsters" In one word you just summed up the entire problem. At no other time do we generalise about an entire segment population (there are near enough 6 million people in the UK aged 17-25) in such a brazen way and pretend it's fair. Okay, statistics show that more young people have an...

    Admiral multicar

    I've had no choice but to go with Admiral for the last few years - nobody else even got close to their quotes. Fortunately I haven't had to make a claim, but I've heard very few good things and a lot of bad from them. If you have Admiral as your insurer, I'd recommend getting Audi's Ensurance...

    young driver on an Audi

    There isn't a "cheap" way for a young driver to be on an Audi, although to be fair the car doesn't usually make THAT much difference. He'd be better off getting a Polo or something for a couple of years, 20 and 2 years NCB is a lot more bank account friendly for an Audi than 17 and none. Try...

    This year's adventure!

    Policy purchased :) £400 less than my renewal, £40 better than what they thought was my best other quote (although it was actually £20 better), better conditions on the policy and I can understand the accent on the phone! A thoroughly painless experience from start to finish, and your Mr...

    This year's adventure!

    You never know, eh? It genuinely would make me a very happy customer to be paying <£700 though. And the Admiral quote dropping by £400 was the best haggling I've probably ever done... but still, I'm not staying with them on the principle of them trying to charge me £1110 for something they can...

    This year's adventure!

    Half an hour on the phone with Admiral to cancel (and correct my postcode for the next month until my policy lapses) and they've got their quote down to £717... I'm slightly amused to find that they don't have the authority to knock off an extra 8 quid to beat your price, but I'm going to stick...
