| I have heard of 'Brentacre' before but was told there a VW/Audi insurer, so have never bothered with them... Well im telling you...BOTHER WITH THEM. Amazing company, just saved my over £100. Didnt charge for having big brakes! And said to me "o, and if you want, you can have a bodykit, buckets, exhaust, KnN, suspencion/coilovers and stuff and price wont go up"... ![]() Told the guy id recommend him, so there you are. Family run i think. Dave

| What vehicle, how old and what No claims? I've always found the smaller companie to be more expensive. I saved £250 on my car insurance, by switching from Direct Line to Elephant. I'm 30, have full no claims, on an Octy VRS and I paid £284 (fully comp with a named driver on it) I can claim £250 of that back through my work, so in total for a whole year, I paid £34

| Just got a quote from them for my fabia. Cheapest quote from anywhere else was £520, and no mods allowed. Brentacre quoted me £550 but said i could do anything i wanted to the car, but as long as i didnt modify the engine, there would be no price increase... Im 21, with 4yrs NCD

| Think I might have to give them a try as at the moment Axa Swiftcover are best for my Fabia VRS at £680 that's for me 22 with 4yrs NCD & 3points with one named driver. My current insurer (M&S) on the car i'm in the process of selling (05 Citroen C2!!!???) lol. has quoted me £2000!!!!! Where can I find the number for Brentcare? Google? This could be the answer to my insurance worry..... lol. |
