Default Insurance companies recommended

My insurance is due next month on my modified wrx bugeye, looking for recommendations for renewal quotes.
Many thanks.

Hi,
Please feel free to give us a try for insurance if you like. If you wanted to PM me some contact details I'd be happy to arrange for one of my quotes team to give you a call back.
Regards,
Dan.

Keith Michaels Insurance

Have used them the last 3 years and really can't fault the efficiency, price or service, always top notch!

Ask for Gary Moulson, He's on here lurking around in his evo somewhere lol.

I see Keith Michaels recommended yet when I called for a quote they priced themselves out of the market by a long way. In fact all the "insurers" (I say that with quotes as they are mostly brokers, the insurance will be underwritten by someone else) here were priced too highly.

I would say go with whoever gives you the best cover and price, but I can recommend a few to avoid - Aviva, Hastings and any of the UK Insurance group (Direct Line, Churchill, Privilege, among others). Those three may well be getting sued a lot but other insurers right now....
And Admiral - they may be cheap but you get what you pay for.

Is your car modified and are you declaring all your mods? If you haven't owned a high powered car before they won't touch you, but Keith Michaels were one of the cheapest around, and each renewal i normally shop around as companies go up in price, I've not felt the need to with Keith Michaels as the price has been coming down each year.

My misses tried them and found them more expensive but she hasn't got a modified car really.

Mods declared and this isn't my first Scooby. Been driving them for several years now, and GTIs for about 15 years before that.

I was just sharing my experience and general recommendation to shop around.
