It's that time of year again to renew the car insurance. For the last 8 years I've been with Tesco, despite their reputation since they have served my family well. However, when my renewal came through this year, there had been the usual price-hike but this time Tesco would not budge on the price and I have politely told them that I shall be taking my business elsewhere this year.
Enter stage left: a plethora of insurance companies. My question to the fine folk of OCUK is - which one? I've spent many hours over the weekend (not while the rugby was on) on all of the comparison sites and reading reviews. Whilst I fully expected companies towards the 'value' end of the spectrum to be less popular, I'm finding that even supposedly reputable insurers such as Direct Line have had some pretty scathing reviews. I've had a quote from the ahem, Large Grey Animal company that ticks all of the boxes and is nearly £200 less than Tesco's £518 renewal. I could pay a premium and go with one of the more 'prestigious' companies but is it worth it?
For info, I'm 25, drive a 1.4 51-plate Corsa (albeit an SRI) with 5 years no claims, no incidents or convictions.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
