i just got done picking a new insurance company as the one i had (zurich) was just taking the piss with the prices, so i looked n looked n looked, best i came up with was admiral, cant remember exactly what the figures were but i know i made like a saving of at least 150quid a year or summit.
ohhh, and another thing i meant to add was, WATCH OUT for the con of the "voluntary" excess and "compulsary" excess's ...! dont get stung !!!
Car insurance companies have a rediculous habit of not mentioning too often about what the excess's are on a policy....
Make sure to ask what is my voluntary excess and my compulsary excess amounts, you would be VERY VERY surprised sometimes at how huge the excess's can be, especially the compulsary one which they never talk about.
For example, i picked my own voluntary excess, you can do that too, remember though, generally the lower the excess amount you choose it will make the premium higher, i picked £150 as that suited me, and my compulsary is set at £60 which i thought was not too bad, so that means if i have an accident my total excess would be only £210, not too bad.
On the other hand though, there was one company i got a quote off (tesco value insurance), they allowed you to choose the voluntary excess as normal and they set the compulsary at (wait for it, lol), £600, LOL, so it worked out like total excess of 750quid in the event of a crash, ilmao, i told them to go and take a run n jump, i asked the guy if he was serious, lol, he says yes, very serious, lol
So beware !!! of the dreaded excess's everyone, and always make sure you know what they are first of all.
hope this helps.
