Wow!
Thanks so much for the heads up on sureterm!
Insurance runs out on the vehicross tomorrow and Sureterm have literally HALVED what my current broker quoted!
Actually works out cheaper than last years!
Can't wait to call my broker and tell them where they can stick their quote!

Just found out that the policy from sureterm covers me for "green laning" too!

Wish I'd known this last week!

check with you insurance company, some of them have a 14day cooling of period during which you can change it for a cheaper/better option

If you bought your insurance over the phone or the internet then distance selling regs mean you can cancel the policy within the first 14 days.

I have been with SureTerm for a few years now as they would provide green-lane cover which was a necessity for my use. The car is a second car, agreed mileage, agreed value and buy-back option if written-off. OK due for renewal come Sept but part way through this years insurance cover which cost £230ish. Down side is the £40 they charge for any post-agreement adjustments but more and more companies are introducing this now.

Mention you are a club member - a lot of policies they have give a percentage reduction. I was told by their rep that forum memberships qualify where appropriate.
