1. Don't say you are going to garage your car, say it will be parked offroad on a driveway. Bizzarely it's more expensive if you say it's going to be garaged every night!
2. Tweak your occupation - there are usually 2 or 3 generic job descriptions that your job could legitimately fall under. Try tweaking your job description, but dont tell a blatant lie of course.
3. Add your Mum onto the policy. Mine is dead so not an option but I'm assured that 8 times out of 10 that brings the premium down.
4. Once you've jotted down the top 6 quotes, have a trawl through Quidco and topcashback to see if any of these insurers are giving a kickback. Sometimes a more expensive quote can suddenly become the cheapest with the help of £100 cashback through Quidco.
Using 1 and 2 above saved me £60. Using 4 saved me another £40. So £100 better off compared the my first quote from the price comparison sites for very little effort.
Hope this can be of use to someone.

Jeremy
