How To... SAVE THE MOST MONEY on your car insurance
HOW TO… SAVE THE MOST MONEY
on your car insurance Everybody is looking for cheaper car insurance and we can show you how you could get straight to the biggest savings in just 3 Easy Steps with the mod-friendly Volvo Owners Club Insurance. Though we use computers as a guide, our expert staff individually assess you based on your own circumstances, regularly beating the rates the computer produces, the direct companies and the price comparison websites. VOC members actually SAVE £51 on average and we’d like you to benefit from this too. 3 Easy Steps The people who save the most money are those who follow our easy 3-step plan: STEP 1 Have your best quote or renewal premium to hand STEP 2 Give VOC Insurance a call FREE on 0800 023 4374 (01424 205077 for mobiles) STEP 3 Tell us your best quote and we’ll use it to negotiate a better rate on your behalf That’s right, get your best car insurance quote and we’ll beat it by as much as we can. Remember, the members who saved £51 on the best quote they can find adopt this method. We use computers as a guide but our fully-trained, helpful staff consistently beat the rates the computer produces, the direct companies and the price comparison websites when we have a ‘best quote’ to beat. Quality service and advice too You’ll also benefit from independent insurance advice and personal service where your needs are put before all other considerations. You’ll be able to speak to a real person in the UK and there are no call centres. And you’ll receive all the ongoing support you need, including claims assistance, throughout the life of your policy. The scheme is available to any make and model, so your friends and family can benefit too. Simply call FREE on 0800 023 4374 to find out how much you could SAVE The scheme covers most modifications (EXCLUDING NITROUS and ROLL CAGES). All makes and models considered eligible. Drivers must be aged over 19 for Third Party, Fire & Theft or over 22 for Comprehensive. Drivers of performance vehicles (RS, VXR, Type-R, etc) must be aged 25 or over. All drivers must have held a licence for at least 1 year, have minimum 12 months’ experience of driving/insuring similar performance cars and have at least 1 year's NCB (unless you have NCB on a second car or a company car letter to state at least 1 year's claim-free driving). Saving applies to new policies for named drivers and is subject to individual circumstances including restrictions on claims/convictions and excludes all M, L, OL & SK1-12 postcodes and Northern Ireland. Some postcodes require the car to be parked off the road overnight. Written proof of best quote may be required. £51 is the average saving for new VOC customers (Jan-Dec 2009) where ‘best quote’ information was supplied. VOC Insurance is administered by Chris Knott Insurance who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority. |

My 240 is costing £153 for the year and the old 145 on classic insurance is £102 for the year both fully comp and I would not insure any other way. I very much doubt a car enthusiast would in insure TPFT TBH |

Secondly, why do members need to tell you what their best quote is? Either you can give a competetive quote or you can't surely? You should not need to know what the best that has been offered is IMHO... Saying that you can beat any of the online insurance comparison sites doesn't inspire me with confidence either.... I did an online search for a Toyota Estima that I owned a 2 years ago - Best online quote using the comparison sites was £1250 fully comp. After doing a bit of searching myself I got that down to £300... So much for Insurance comparison sites! I rest my case..... I'm afraid that with your current listing I'm unlikely to even call you.... But I'd certainly be interested in your answers to the points raised above!

It's true to say that we have been dealt a blow by this particular insurer with regards to some of these restrictions. However, most of them are the result of the insurer being given bad risks by others. The Chris Knott account actually performs quite well but they are painting us with the same brush when they place these restrictions on everyone they deal with.
We're playing exactly by the rules for the time being and we're negotiating to get some of the flexibility back. Chris Knott is well respected and there are very few issues with the car club business we attract. As regards the minimum premiums, the whole market is seeing a rate increase, not just Chris Knott so we still expect to be competitive for the majority of members. If you're insured cheaply elsewhere you can be sure that your premium will go up at renewal. The bottom line is that S60ben is overstating things considerably with his claim that this is the end of the world. Apologies for not explaining the SP/PC/PL offence codes but as it only affects those who have one, I thought if you had one you'd know what it was.

Is the 20bhp increase limit a set thing across all of your policies?
I ask as I have been previously insured with you on my 740 with a 75-100% bhp increase and would look to get a quote from yourselves next spring when the car comes back onto the road...... Cheers Ryan

Sorry 1stRaven, I should clarify - WE only have access to one company who will allow bhp increases. There may be other insurers who also allow bhp increases over 20bhp but we don't have access to them and therefore all hope is not yet lost for you.
