Talking Keith Michaels Insurance

Just saved nearly £200.00 by going with Gary @ Keith Michaels.

And thats with all the new mods declared as opposed to the Direct Line quote for renewal, which was on the old engine.

So in reality, it would have been well over the £200.00

I will also be able to get fully comprehensive "Ring" insurance with them too @ £60.00 per day.

Happy days

Gary always looks after our cars,

everybody we have recommended him to, have all been very happy to take up insurance with him too.

Don't let him put you with AXA though (imho)

used to be with A-Plan, but Gary beat their quote comprehensively

I'll also be using Gary for the Ring insurance next year too.

Gary's the man..very good prices and top service.

Somehow he knows everyone too.
When I called for my Ring insurance I just said my name, he knew who I was and the cover note turned up in post next day. I didn't even say what car, reg no or address.

I don't think many insurers would be the same.....

Gary of Keith Michaels Ins is a Top Man.

I tried several Ins companies & provided them with my mod list and they all told me to go away as far a possible

Gary sorted it for £ 880 all mods declared including further mods if required.

Gary at KM was by far the cheapest for my old Scoob. Great customer service too.

Ideal for Scoobs, shame he couldn't compete on the quotes on my Audi when I changed cars. (Meerkat sorted me out on that one. Simples.)

Will give Gary call when It's renewal time though. (might have mods to declare by then)

Give Gary a call back when he returns to the office - think he's at Brands today. He's said in the past that you really need to speak to him

Thats a bit of a problem as i did intend on buying the car tomorrow!, My present insurers, Elephant wont insure the car due to the mods even though they insured my STI RA which was 30-40bhp down in the one i intend on buying!.
I had a reet laugh today when i phoned up one specialist, they asked for my car driving history and only take into account your last 12 months and it has to be vehicles of the same level as the one you wont to buy otherwise they wont touch you, i sold the STI RA 3 months ago and bought a Clio RS172 to run around in for the meantime, because of this they wouldnt touch me on the WRX RA because it was a as the girl put it " A really fast car!!".
Pathetic, i never thought id have so much trouble insuring a 3 1/2 grand 300bhp car, i could go and insure a 20 grand M3 tomorrow!!, what a joke!!

It is ridiculous matey.

This is why talking with Moley is so crucial. I don't always think that most of the people you speak to at an insurance company really have a clue about things like this.

All you have to do is look at Angers RA, that was a ****ing monster. I bet he was with Moley though.
