Dave.Wilson Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Hi fellow Cabby fans,I'm currently getting quotes for my MK3 Escort cabby, and the cheapest I've got so far is £222, which includes 30 days european cover.Does anyone else have other insurance companies that they could recommend I give a call? I want to obviously get the best price... I don't mind name-dropping if it gets you a voucher or a discount next year if the price is right.Thanks Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian71 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I insure with performance direct for approx 140 a year covering 3000 miles a year if thats any help to you. I always fight one against the other as they never give loyalty discounts to stay with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave.Wilson Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 Thanks one and all... I'm going to be busy tomorrow lunch time making all these calls.... but if it saves me money that's more money to spend on the Escort. Will keep you all updated on the cheapest & best deal I get.

StuDaBear Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I normally use flux, cant fault them to be fair, do any of the people above have massively modified cabrio's? If so who gives decent quotes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave.Wilson Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 Thanks for all the feedback people... I called all your recommendations, all were cheaper than my original quote... but the best by far was from R&H, £109 including breakdown cover, which, considering the fact that my engine is currently in bits is probably a good thing to have... So a special shout out and thank you to Corkie80 for the contact details!! Stu, mine is unmodified, completely original with only 49k on the clock and full service history... although it's currently in parts in my garage as the top of the engine has been removed to try and fix a sticking valve... hopefully it's just that and not terminal.
