Insurance

[V10Mike]

I have insured my Triking with Adrian Flux since purchase; last year the premium went up about 40% which was bad enough, but this year it has increased again by a further one hundred pounds, more than double in two years.

Have other owners had similar experiences? Can anyone suggest other insurers I should contact who might be more reasonable?

Thanks!

Mike

Thanks, I've managed to find a provider who nearly matches last years rate, plus has a much lower excess.

I've been with Flux for years, my premium hasn't changed at all in the last two years! I don't get how the insurance companies seem to just pluck figures from the air. Other than 'cos buying their product is compulsory.

Who did you go with this year, Mike, in case they do it to me this time round?

[V10Mike]

It's a mystery isn't it? I'm now with Footman James. I found the online system very easy and the follow up phone call friendly and professional.

Even more interesting...

FJ declined to insure my Triking a few years back as they 'don't insure bike engined cars'!

New policy with Adrian Flux on new T4 £189 with 5000 miles limit and £150 excess. Can’t complain about that.

Hi All,
For comparison purposes I have just insured my Type 1 with Adrian Flux, including my daughter as a named driver, for £106. This is with a total excess of £400.

I also had my insurance with Adrian Flux for 10 year, this year they wanted to increase my premium by 152%, from £175 to £442. I have now insured through A1 at £259. Footman James quoted £305 still vastly better than Adrian Flux.
