Can anyone recommend a good insurer for a Continental GT please?

I've searched the forum and can't find anything other than the Adrian Flux sticky.

Very good with multi car policies

Thanks for the tip, multicar definitely the way to go. I hadn't even considered it but I have two cars with admiral and they added the bentley for £350. They also did a friend's RS6 today for about £500. Amazing rates compared to the other quotes.

Hey

Ok, how does this multi car bit works?

I paid £1800 for my Bentley's insurance (mind you I'm 26).

I have a Nissan as well, for that I pay around £800 insurance..

So a big chunk goes on the insurance itself...

It is really a matter of how much use you make of the cars, how many drivers etc.Have a look at one of the comparison sites first, although I could not see how to get a multiple quote from them and then try Locktons Admiral or Footman James. For £2050 I cover a Mulliner ContR on an agreed value of £70k, A Maserati Quattroporte, a 1972 BMW 2002 and my wifes 2010 Mercedes A Class. I also have my son and son in law as drivers.

Locktons do our Phantom DHC and Rapide, both agreed value low excess all for £2900 they are helpful, more of a old fashioned broker with proper service, nothing to much trouble

I reached 9 points and got kicked out (was invited to leave with 7 days notice), from Direct Line whom were very competitive.

I shivered when I received first quotes from other and then found Diamond Insurance Brokers in Tring (Diane). Unbelievable, old fashioned personal service and they got me covered (at a lower premium), with Chaucer. This is a company who specialise in Classic and performance cars, including multi-car policies. Ongoing, we have moved most of our policies (cars, business and others), to Diamond, saving money and improving service.

I then had a crow fly through the front grille of the GT and smash through all three front radiators. It was my first claim in over thirty years of motoring and wondered if I should pay the £11K bill rather than claim. Chaucer were fantastic and pretty well said that "st happens", paid up and didn't increase my premium for the following year. I was as surprised and incredulous as, no doubt, you are reading this.

Firms like these deserve recommendation.

Good luck
