hi lads, was with xs direct last year paid 1400 fully comp wit that 4000 excess, got my renewal last week they were lookin for 2000 so i rang quinn direct and am happily going with them for 1000 fully comp wit 190 euro excess,im 26 have full licence 6 years and 4 yrs no claims bonus, pays to shop around il have to say
 
Yup, i nearly went with XS Direct myself, then rang Quinn Direct on the off chance and they where happy to continue it on my current policy (i thought they wouldnt insure me).
 
yeah they r brokers for probus which is the body over xsdirect, 123.ie wont insure jap imports tried to get a quote off them last year
 
i got a quote off xsdirect on sti only last week jap typr R 1500euro yu hav to be at least 25 for them to quote yu :subaru:
 
Heres my dealings with quinn. First car i insured was a toyota corsa 1.5 16v efi and all that for 3800, then after turning 21 with 1 years NCB on a provisional it dropped to 1800 i couldnt believe the drop. I went to insure a Levin BZR and they wouldnt touch me so i tried a 1.6 Mivec Mirage and they wouldnt touch me, so i tried a 1.5 Levin (i like the style of them heheh) and they wouldnt insure me even though i was driving a 1.5. I really wanted the levin so i tried numerous companys and they all had reasons why the wouldnt quote me like "you need 2 years NCB" or "We dont insure imports" by pure luck i found the impreza wich:
1. Got me decent insurance on a respectable car
2. Because its a subaru i dont feel classed as a "boy racer" in it.
 
dublinsti said xsdirect wont insure under 25's on an sti.
im 23 and insured with xsdirect have a full license 4 year's now and they where the only company that would insure me on my sti.as all the other companies have a policy of no drivers under 25.the only bad thing is the premium just over 3,500 yoyo's a year for fully comp :cry: :cry:.but worth it to drive a scooby :subaru:

You should try getting a quote on an Opel Corrolla from them - not a hope :D
 
there is actually such thing as a Toyota Corsa. So technically he is correct.

That is one ugly car.

Anybody who has insurance with a company is entitled to be insured regardless of what they buy. It's called insurer of last resort. All you do is get refused elsewhere and your insurance company must quote you on what you have. If they give you a bananas quote, you can refer it to the ombudsman.

Most companies grow a brain if you threaten them with this course of action and give you a reasonable quote. I've had to do it everytime I've changed car, especially last time.

When I went to insure the Evo they asked me what all the letters after the model number stood for, given my obligations under uberriame fidae I duly explained MR; Mitsubishi Racing; FQ Fooking Quick (yes that is actually what it stands for); 340 , 340 HP.

After much laughter I was politely to told to forget about it.

I then said, 'I've had several refusals and you are my insurer of last resort, you have to quote and any stupid quotes will be referred'.

The result was a very small hike in premium. Happy days, give it a go yourselves.
