They won't be getting my business. Sorry, Dan! I tried.

Cheers,

How do you explain that Dan, when you advertise as "Alpina Specialists" Brokers ?
Hi
Unfortunately we can't be competitive on every single risk I'm afraid. I only wish we could. I'm happy to take another look at any quotation we have given us just to make sore noting been missed.
Regards,
Dan.

More detailed post here but summary is:

Admiral Multicar policy

£333 for the B3S - 20k miles pa, 20 years NCB, no black marks, rural and garaged location, ancient driver (50) - which isn't too bad really looking at some of the quotes for other B3S variants :D
Charles
Teacher of Chemistry and driver of ALPINAs - not necessarily in that order ;)
B3S Touring (49/116) - been to the moon and now on the way back!
Renault Grand Espace - not mine but the wife's!

Just about to renew the fleet - ALPINA, Espace and Polo - with Admiral.

As usual, the initial renewal quote was laughable but 20 minutes later and it is cheaper than last year :D

I won't bore you with the details for all the cars except to say that I will be insuring the B3S Touring for £295 for the next year (20,000 miles, Business use and agreed value of £13,000)
