I'm expecting a 10% increase tbh. I pay in one go which is better but the London post code kills me.
Induction and insurance...

Chris Knott insurance was the best for me. I was with Elephant for the last 7 years with 5 years NCB, paying £880 a year for the BMW Clubsport. Sold the BMW, got the Type R this year, Elephant wanted an extra £90!!
Phoned Chris Knott after seeing them on here, they came in with £480 for the year!!!
Now modded with Lowering Springs, ARC Induction Box and Evo 8 Wheels, they only wanted £30 one off-payment which i was happy with.
May look to a different insurer next year though as they have brought in a new clause permitting mods to increase engine power by only 20bhp!
Would you guys tell your insurance company about mods like Braided brake lines, Hose kits, HID's etc etc?

My insurance is actually due for renewal in 6 weeks or so, I'm hoping I can stick with M&S, very happy with them so far! It would also save explaining the mods over and over to different insurers. I never have understood insurance though, mine went up by 20% last year when I changed career, same milage, same address, same me, but a massive increase! Tempted to invent a new career for myself this year, would they find out in the event of a claim? Why the hell would a chef be of higher risk than say, a pilot anyway??!!

Hi Frag
Not sure if you have seen this site before (sorry if it’s old news) http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/insurance/car-insurance-job-picker/ you can put your job title in and it will give you a similar job title that has lower risk.
I think some of the comparison sites might even do it on your behalf. I got a quote off one once and when I went to the insurance company my job title had been changed to just say "Scientific & Technical" but my named driver's job had stayed the same. According to that web site if an IT Consultant's insurance was £1000 a Computer Engineer's would be £974. I think using that as an example you would get way with that all day long, you just couldn’t say you were an admin assistant if in actual fact you were a stunt driver!!
Cheers
Jim
