    Just got my renewal from Brentacre- 399:o

    Mk2 Golf 8V, 2 litre bottom end, **** condition, worth 1000 (cos all mk2s are worth that)

    I'm 45, 10 years NCD, 1 speeding conv in 2010, 1 fault claim 2009.

    Thought this was a bit high so called Footman James, even worse at 519[:s] but they promised somebody would call me back to try to improve the quote, four days later no call, great service:thumbd:

    HIC next, slight improvement at 365.

    I know that my postcode doesn't help, being on the edge of Southmead.
    But nearly 400 is ridiculous.

    Pah - that's nothing! Pathetic Bora, max NCB, annual mileage under 5000, aged 21 and a bit. Last year, Zurich upped my 250 premium to 420, so this year I expected it to go up again.

    I wasn't disappointed. Despite nothing having changed, they decided this year's price would be 1065 !! :o Which explains why I'm now with Tesco, paying 360 :)

    Brentacre have matched HIC's quote of 365 so I've stayed with them.

    I may have been able to get it a bit cheaper but I find the guys at Brentacre so easy to deal with it's worth an extra few quid imo
