Anyone trying it at the mo ?

My renewal's not until the new year but I'm keen to find peoples views on this such as do they make a mess when they fit the box in your car ?

I just got a quote from them for an estimated 3000 miles per year, only £60 cheaper than my normal policy with unlimited mileage, hardly worth it I think...

Although you pay the £95 only once for installing the box subsquent years will be less. Although they only guarantee the price for the first year which is a bit daft 
"premiums paid in return for cover under your insurance policy for the first 12 months is greater than the total amount you would have paid for the same period under a Norwich Union Direct motor insurance policy, then we will refund you the difference"
Being a younger motorist with a claim to my name I can see this being handy

"£214 fully comp 24v unmodifiyed 45 yrs young oh ....direct line"
- how did you manage that? Directline charges me £355 fully comp, I'm 41 with five years protected no claims...perhaps it's also affected by area (I live in Surrey)...
Time to give them a call and see what's going on, £141 is one hell of a difference...

Post codes make all the difference.4 years ago i lived in tamworth (B79) & had a 95 Jag XJ6 Sport (4.0l) With 19" alloys ,powerflow exhaust & A Jaguar power upgrade (chip).Now i live in chelmsley wood (B37) drive a 96 12v estate Am 4 years older with 4 years more no claims & im still paying slightly more than i did with the jag.Lowest quote i could get was just under £280 tpft,but had to have additional immobilisers fitted to my existing security (standard pats + clifford concept 50) !!!.I,ve now gone with the AA.£315 tpft With a £200 excess,but have an AGREED VALUATION of £2000
