Insurance tip

Apologies if this is fairly obvious but as I am currently looking for an L322 I have been running insurance quotes and to my surprise there is massive differences (25%) between the same insurers on different platforms.

As an example admiral were 800 odd on moneysupermarket but 600 odd on gocompare (cheapest was through 1st central online at £480 odd but I have yet to investigate whether they are a reputable business.

So please do use all the comparison sites as I nearly didnt bother and it would have cost me hundreds!

I've never heard that tip before. Is the cover identical ?

Yes i presume so, I put in identical data into each comparison site.

For reference its for an L322 and I am 41 and live in Surrey. I'm not wanting an L405 but I did quotes just to see and the cheapest was 1064!

I’ve had cover from them on a few occasions and have nothing negative to report, however, an insurer is only tested when you actually claim so on that basis I can’t advise. Like most they will be underwritten by one of the big firms.

Yes, its true, I discovered that last year when trying all the comparison sites. Exactly the same cover, but different prices. Takes you straight to the Insurers site to sign up so nothing dodgy

Yep, did mine yesterday. Moneysupermarket was £120 more expensive than Gocompare. The exact same policy with the same provider. Glad I checked them both. 2012 Range Rover Westminster

I had the same experience with same cover and same insurer at different prices.
What really surprised me was the number of quotes on comparison sites that didnt include glass cover. I have never seen that insuring previous cars. Not sure if its a RR thing or a new trend across all car insurance. Not worth the risk imho 2021 Westminster Black D300 MHEV

Having glass cover as an option is fairly new, I know someone who missed it and got a big bill for a replacement screen. You have to read the T&C’s very carefully with insurance. MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

Also, some include the glass roof as a glass claim, others as a full claim affecting NCD.....
