Direct Line took a letter off my company and gave me no claims based on driving a company car. I had looked around for quotes recently and found that no one really wanted to know a Lotus driver who had had a crash recently. However I am only paying £700 for the Exige and that includes £120 to protect my NCD.
yeah, i got similar letter, and that was fine for direct line. i can't protect no claims in the first year though :cry: did they protect yours in the first year??

They're OK so long as the chicks take part as well.

Jacuzzis and the sea off Achmelvich are fair game too...

Bertie, if thoughts are turning to an Exige, I was quoted £50 less per year when I called Admiral and said I was thinking of swapping to a yellow S1 Exige 190 !!

My quote came in the other day... down £55 from last year, which is nice considering I rolled 6 month old Elise and wrote it off a year and a half ago. Protected NCB, 40 yrs old. £440! - First Alternative and no tracker installed.
