Thumbs down ecarinsurance

My first post so be gentle!!!!

Tried ecarinsurance today wouldn't even quote me. Got my van insured with their sister company evan and they were cheapest by far, and none of the daft questions

My current insurance quoted me "not at all happy" with a £1,005 renewal!!!! 35 year old, Full NCD on a 2005 WRX, must be a Joke!

Looks like i best keep looking

Have you tried the usual favourites on here mate? Gary @ Keith micheals, Greenlight, or A-Plan - they usually come up trumps on the scoobies

bobbins is all I can say, wonder if they insure anyone.

Went through it all and got the following;

"We are unable to continue with your Quote due to one or more of your answers:

Sorry, we cannot offer you a quote based upon your requested combination of Driver Age(s), Car, Postcode and Cover. (You may wish to check that you have entered your Address details correctly.)

won't quote me either - 34, clean licence, full no claims, 2003 WRX SL UK no mods. Suppose the Manchester postcode did it. Frankly, unless you drive a hyundai and live in teh country, I wouldn't bother wasting your time

Hi - they don't cover Scoobys but they will quote most ordinary cars and their prices on under 21's are very low.Give them a try for your daily driver.Bear in mind their prices include full breakdown and legal expenses worth around £90.00 of anyone's money.
