Apparently car insurance rates have risen by £100 over the last year (Daily Mail article). If you find that your renewal with your existing provider has gone up please give us a call to see if we can beat your quote with our special car club member scheme. The scheme performs even better when the rest of the market is putting prices up (see feedback below). We love car club members and we're mod-friendly too. Please request a quote using one of the following methods: 1. Call 0800 917 2274 and mention this club/forum; Phone is best as you'll be calling us when it's convenient to talk. With the other methods it's a bit hit or miss whether you can talk when we call. 2. Text QUOTE ME to 61211; 3. Complete our brief Callback Form at https://www.chrisknott.co.uk/CarQuote Thanks, Nick ************** TESTIMONIALS The fresh feedback keeps flowing in. Here is some more gathered in recent days: “Cheapest quote I have had so far by £22” Little_ant, Integra Type-R DC2 forum "I went with Chris Knott and the service I was given was fantastic together with a great quote on my ST and a fantastic quote on the wife's Kuga (beat the comparison sites)." ###simon###, Fiesta ST Owners Club "I was pleased with the quote and deal I received when insuring mine with you a couple of weeks ago. Thank you." Marshy, AudiRS3OC "I got a very good modified car insurance policy through Chris Knott and find them very helpful whenever I contact them." Robbo1987, FiestaSTOC “There's lots of good feedback from Chris Knotts on here. It's great to see, and makes a refreshing change to hear positivity about an Insurance Company.” Leonardo, Hyundai Coupe Owners Club "Two cars insured with your good selves here. I'm hoping I stay with you at renewal too." T-800, AudiRS3 Owners Club

How to get a great car insurance deal in 2016... Hi, It's always good to know if there are special deals to be had. Maybe deals that are not available to Joe Public. The Chris Knott Insurance scheme is one such deal that rewards car enthusiasts with better car insurance rates just for having joined up with this club/forum. OK, so what's the deal? What makes it different to all the other car insurance providers? Well, the insurers on our panel believe that you'll be a better risk than the average driver. So they'll allow us to do all we can (within set criteria) to attract you, including offering very competitive rates. Does it work? You bet it does!... Today, I was looking at the figures for last month and was really pleased to see that our overall quote acceptance rate was 48%. That means we were the best for 48% of the people who called us. That's astonishingly good. I dug further and found that (again in December) we retained 81% of clients at their renewal so it's not a case that we hook you in with a cheap rate and then hike it later. Of course, price isn't everything but it's a major factor in choosing the next insurer for your pride and joy. Where we can we'll offer you a quote that's better than anything else you can find out there and that may involve you telling us what your best alternative is. As I said, the insurers on our panel will often be flexible on their price to win you (and keep you). In addition to great rates we also reward the clubs that we work with. Where they're interested, we pay commission for each policy sold to a member and we pay again at each renewal. This helps to cover the running costs of the club/forum. Last year we paid over £92k in commission to clubs/forums to say thank you for working with us to encourage members to at least try us for a quote. Will you try us and see how much you can save with the Chris Knott Car Club Insurance scheme? Check out the testimonials below from other happy car club members. Did I mention that we're mod-friendly too? QUOTELINE: 0800 917 2274 We're working hard to save you money and give something back to the club/forum when we do. So please pick up the phone when your renewal falls due and request your special 'club member' quote. best, Nick PS. Don't forget that we also offer you multi-buy discounts, loyalty rewards and a 'recommend a friend' scheme. We're offering you and the car enthusiast community more than the average insurance provider will. Please call us on 0800 917 2274 for your no-obligation quotation. ************************ Recent Testimonials - there are alot of them so I don't expect you to read them all but you'll get the idea: "Well after seemingly endless calls to various companies (many I've used in recent years but some new) to get the V70R back on the road, it looks like I've got a deal!... Modern policies were sky high, as I've just turned 25… and as I'm not going to use it as my every day car, I can't use my 6 years NCB on quotes. Just got off the phone with Kim at Chris Knott, and they're covering me for £445 on a modern policy (so it can earn its own NCB) fully comp. Very helpful, and VOC get a few quid out of the deal as well!" Warninglight, Volvo Owners Club "Just renewed my 4.2 A8 with you. Good price, good sales rep (Ian)." alanyork, Audi-Sport forum “Another "quote me happy" customer. Easily the most competitive this year. You were not able to cover me last year, due to only 2 months experience with a RWD car, but thankful I gave you a call this year. Thanks again to Kim who was very professional and took me through everything in the right amount of detail.” James Durbin, Z4 Forum "Great quote & service from Rebecca @Chris_Knott_Ins - will be back with the other 2 cars for you to quote next month." Jason Adderley, Twitter “Better Rates. Time for my first renewal since acquiring my 2012 S Class so compared my old insurers quotes with compare the market and found a cheaper price. Then tried Chris Knott who both matched the best quote and offered me an extra £20 off so I have accepted it.” Nicholas15, Mercedes-Benz Owners Forum “I found CK well priced and very clued up on mods, would recommend.” mark-in-stoke, GT86 Owners Club “Not only were the team helpful when I came to renew my insurance, over £200 less than my previous insurance company who I’ve been with for many years, but even when closed they managed to help me on Boxing Day by using their Facebook messaging service. I would highly recommend these guys and have several friends who have taken out policies.” Mathew Watson, Facebook “Not often I'm this impressed but the service I received today from Ian at Chris Knott was second to none. Not only were they open this morning (2nd Jan) but the quote was very competitive, fast, and the transaction went through immediately trouble free. I was able to tax the new convertible online within minutes of coming off the phone to Ian. Really impressed, Thanks.” Jimmylegs, Celica Club “Called up again today to inform them of the pending OBX 4-2-1 manifold going on. "No problem, that's the policy updated for you". Cloud 9. Must have been about the 10th call to them to makes changes over the term so far, certainly been 3 in the last 2 months what with the lowering springs etc. No charge again. Thank you.” Lexo, Hyundai Coupe Owners Club

UPDATE: MotoGP Silverstone tickets - winner Happy New Year to you all! We're really grateful to everyone who contacted Chris Knott last year for a quote.

Chances are you'll now fit our criteria and we look forward to helping even more car club/forum members to get a better car insurance deal. December was an amazing month for the scheme and we thrashed the month's target - so thank you very much.

We look forward to helping you save money this year. best, Nick ************************* TESTIMONIALS Here's what club members have said about Chris Knott's prices and service in the last month or so: "Try Chris Knotts - just a quickie to say thanks again to Chris Knotts. They were the cheapest when I got the policy 6 months ago and just called them up to tell them about the cat back that's being fitted on Saturday. Zero charge for policy amendment and zero hike in premiums." Lexo, Hyundai Coupe Owner Club "I also went with CKI as they were cheaper than my renewal from eSure. Ian was very helpful on the phone with my quote and the communication back about the quote, acceptance of my no claims bonus, renewal quote and licence came through the day they received it (day after I posted it using prepaid label) meant I knew it was received and in order. I also got another text today thanking me for my business and here is the claims phone number if I should ever need it. My policy came into effect as from yesterday." ScoobyDoo, JagInfo "Well done. Got my coupe today and Rebecca from Chris Knott's team done a great job beating the cheapest quote I had, and that included Euro use, and key cover." paulk, Hyundai Coupe Owners Club "Just spoke to these guys, Adam I think it was, beat A***** F*** by £40 and my existing insurer by over £80. £345 for an old timer (just turned 50) like me including 90 days Euro cover sounds fair to me so I will be taking this up in the next couple of weeks." davedutch, Nissan 350Z Forum *************************

UPDATE: WINNER ANNOUNCEMENT Thanks to all those who requested a car insurance quote from Chris Knott during November. All quote requests received during the month were automatically entered into our November prize draw to WIN £100 Amazon Voucher. I'm pleased to announce that Mr S Presgrave from Kent was the month's winner. Congratulations go to him! His voucher will be sent out in the coming days but there's an interesting thing about this winner: he is an existing client who asked us to quote on an extra car in his household. So, not only did he win the voucher, he obviously saved money on the quote (because he went ahead with the policy) which included a loyalty discount of £20 on top of any other saving we were able to find for him to win the business. If you're a Chris Knott client you too will receive our loyalty discount when you bring extra cars to us that we don't already cover for you. If you're not yet a Chris Knott client, why not call us for a quote when your car insurance renewal falls due. Don't forget, if you request a quote during December for a policy that's due within 30 days, you could WIN 2x 2016 MotoGP tickets for Silverstone (all 3 days) - see our other post on the forum about this. QUOTELINE: 0800 917 2274 best, Nick PS. We've already reached 50% of December's target in just the first 5 working days of the month! This is because we've got some great rates available for car club/forum members. It's worth you calling. PPS. Check out the post in our section about our current Breakdown Cover offer too. ********************************************************** Some of the RECENT FEEDBACK on Chris Knott from the car club community: "This year, I took the best quote I had and asked Chris Knott to beat it, which they kindly did. I think that method would work with anyone." JaceMindu, Hyundai Coupe Owners Club "I had a similar experience with these guys, they undercut the premiums on 3 of our cars by 10% and now the 4th car by £30 on the renewal. If it continues we will be using them for a long time!" bluestreak56, Z4-Forum "We bought our first Z4 at the weekend (a weekend fun car!) and I completed my normal checks of the various comparison sites. As I already have our main family car in my name we decided to register this under my wife's name with her as the main insured. She hasn't had a car insurance policy for 3 years so no NCB although a named driver. I spoke to the very helpful Rebecca who still managed to beat our lowest quote by £20. A small saving but I would rather £20 in my pocket than an insurance company's! Honestly I didn't expect them to beat the comparison sites so I was pleasantly surprised. Great service and I will be getting a quote on our Audi when it is due to renew." onenil, Z4-Forum "I've just insured with Chris Knott and mentioned I was from the 350z forum so hopefully that was recorded. They were able to beat my previous best quote from G********* by £30 so I took them up on it and so far so good, I even got a callback when requested too :thumbs:" Sargara, 350Z Forum "Just taken out my insurance with you guys, really easy talking to Kathy (last month) and then Rebecca today, and they actually know what mods are! Brilliant." Mark-in-Stoke, GT86/BRZ Drivers Club "Great service and price. New quote was only £20 higher than last year's quote and again they were the cheapest after I did some comparing, so happy bunny for another year. Try them out - got nothing to lose and everything to gain!" Imran, VWAudi Forum

UPDATE: DISCOUNT EXTENDS TO NEW PRICES OK, so 1st December has passed and we had to finally reflect the government's increased Insurance Premium Tax in the cost of our Breakdown Cover. However, there is still some good news - my bosses have agreed to extend our £5 DISCOUNT offer until the end of February 2016 so you can still save money over what should be a full price of £63 for a single vehicle. The result is that you can arrange 12 months' comprehensive UK Breakdown Cover with Chris Knott this winter for just £58. Multi-car options are also available at a discounted rate. See posts above for the extent of the cover. You can buy over the phone by calling 0800 917 2274 and following the 'car' options or get a quote and buy online at Chris Knott UK Breakdown Cover.

With exactly the same policy and company I was previously with they were immediately 10% cheaper on a £450 policy. I rang my broker to cancel my renewal and got the usual "we'll try and get a better price" and knocked a further £60 off the same policy... I decided I was still going to change, so rang back to Chris Knott to sort out. When I spoke to them again to say go ahead they had another look and came up with an even better quote, different company but same, if not better, specifications and saved me another £70. So overall I've saved myself £100 on my renewal quote, that's a great saving on the original £450. What more can you say !!! Well done." stokey1964, VWAudiForum "Already with you guys and would highly recommend you." cache, CivInfo "Have got both cars (Nissan 100NX and Octavia Scout) insured with Chris Knott for the same as just the Scout last year." RainbowFire, Briskoda

UPDATE: New prices, even more competitive. Hi, If you're wanting to arrange GAP Insurance on a new car purchase I have some good news for you. Chris Knott GAP has always offered great value for money but while adjusting the prices for the new insurance tax rate we've revised the vehicle value brackets further to make it even more competitive for you. We know we'll beat many of the alternative providers out there, especially the car dealers who are generally overpriced and not even insurance people. Please give us a call on 0800 917 2274 or use our online GAP facility to get a quote & buy - Chris Knott's RTI & Finance GAP. best, Nick RECENT GAP TESTIMONIALS: "Just took up this (GAP) with Andy when we bought our new Toyota GT86. £151 to cover a £29k car. This is combined cover to clear any finance and most importantly, pay the difference between the insurance settlement and the initial invoice price. Dealer wanted over £400! They also provided regular insurance cover for her new car. Again, really competitive prices and I know from experience that the cover, should the worst happen, is excellent." Squadrone Rosso, Alfa Romeo Owners Club UK "I've used Chris Knott for a few years as a direct result of seeing them on here. They do great value GAP insurance too." dagdave, CMax OC "FYI guys - just got a very competitive quote for car insurance and GAP insurance on [my car] from a lovely lady at Chris Knott. Worth checking out!" mjogreen, DS3Club

Therkim, KiaOC "Renewed through Chris Knott again this year. Got straight through to an advisor, as with the couple of calls I needed to make to them during the expiring policy. I'm now covered by an insurer I know has looked after relatives needing to make a claim, at the best price I could find from any provider. They have always been quick and helpful each time I've called, showing you can still get good quality service with competitive quotes." Rabbut, A1 Forum "All sorted and renewed.

QUOTELINE: 0800 917 2274 (also free for mobiles) Just this morning I heard from our Motor New Business Supervisor that we have already reached 25% of our October premium target in just the first 2 and a half days of the month, so we clearly have great rates for car club/forum members. Give us a go in the mix and see how much you could save through the Chris Knott Insurance scheme. We know we can't beat everyone's best quote but we'll do it for as many of you as we can.

Ash1990, FiestaSTOC "Wow just got a quote from Chris Knott beaten everyone else and then some. One very happy soon to be new customer. Highly highly recommend giving them a call." Triggerboos, VWAudi Forum "Got my documents thankyou and thankyou for making it really easy, Cathy. Declared mods and you beat my previous insurer by over £100, £250 if you add the mods on." Shel, Hyundai Coupe "Must say, I spoke to Rebecca today who was very helpful, not only did she match my already very good quote from Admiral, she actually beat it by about £60 with all my modifications properly declared. Definitely worth the move to Chris Knotts, it was nice saying my car has a remap without trying to explain to an Indian that a remap is not a suspension change, nor is it a chip that goes on the side of the engine. Will be ringing up to confirm in the next few days." Alex121, Volvo Forums "All mods declared and got a lovely quote of £300 today! Lovely stuff! Beat Sheila's Wheels by £12, but it's still about £140 less than my Swift Cover renewal. I prefer having my insurance with a modified car insurer anyway. Happy days!" JaceMindu, Hyundai Coupe OC "I have just renewed my EP3 cover with yourselves and my Mrs has just swapped her FN2 cover to you as well. Very happy with the service. She is only 26 and saved over £200 with yourselves so can't argue with that." al_typeR, Type R Owners *************************************************

Here are some testimonials about Chris Knott Insurance received in the last month: "I found them good and extremely helpful." veilside z, 350z-uk "My Giulia's insurance is up this month. Direct Line can go take a running jump. Chris Knott provided me with a very good quote indeed - thanks Ian." MarkiT, AlfaOwner "Another happy customer , CK were one of the only insurers happy to touch my American Corrado, as soon as it's back on the road CK will be getting a call." kerrly1, VW Golf Mk2 OC "I've just renewed, great deal on both my cars again." STGeege, FiestaSTOC "Well, put it this way, I won't be moving from yourselves after the support and backup you gave me after being hit by someone with a dodgy policy. I didn't need yourselves in the end as Churchill paid out anyway but knowing you were there was good to know, thanks again CK." lizard, Vectra-c forum "I've used Chris Knott for a few years as a direct result of seeing them on here. They do great value GAP insurance too." dagdave, CMax OC "Big thank you to Rebecca (and the team) at Chris Knott Insurance. Due to one too many claims on my policy LV (who were otherwise excellent) decided not to offer a renewal. Panic set in - but Briskoda to the rescue! Read the various reviews here and decided to call CK - within the day all set-up with a like for like policy with another Defaqto 5 star insurer - £20 increase in cost over previous LV policy. Rebecca was extremely reassuring, helpful, and went into a lot of detail to ensure that the policy was exactly what I needed. Thank you!" chadlington, Briskoda "Quoted and we're accepting. Brilliant! Beat the cheapest quote we could get online and 20 quid multi-car discount." shnazzle, MR2 Roadster OC "I can't recommend these guys enough, I hate the big firms, that monopolise us all like sheep. You speak to 15 different people before a girl at the end of the phone tells you your premiums are 5 grand and asks if you'd like to purchase the policy, yes I reply just after I've sat on a porcupine and removed the spines with a kitchen knife. At Chris knott.. It's all different, I was sceptical I must admit, but after speaking to two wonderful ladies at Chris knott, one being Kim, and the other I didn't catch her name (only young but please commend!!!) I was assured they were better than all that. I don't trust the big firms not at all, so today I'm gonna send my documents off and get them to Chris Knott... I honestly can't say enough, if you're in need of a quote... These guys are pretty bang on the mark. I hate insurance time of year... I have spent endless hours on the phone to idiots. But not these lot. They're brilliant. Thanks again to Briskoda and Chris Knott!!! Big up to ya'll." kipperbailey, Briskoda "Well after speaking to Sky, Adrian Flux & Prestige, Chris Knott has come in at first with a mind blowing £280 which I will be going for." carlsberg, Hyundai Coupe OC "Just switched to Chris Knott this week, saved me over £200 on a like for like fully comp quote compared to Flux Direct. Was very easy dealing with both Tabitha and Kim on both occasions I called in to get the quote and then to amend some details. My documents were sent out quickly via email with no issues at all. Great service and a brilliant price..." ColbyCol, EK9 Forum *******************************
