Liverpool Victoria - No Tracker Required - £268.14 on Compare the Meerkat

I will go with this unless A-Plan to come back to me with a similar offer 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE
1993 Discovery 1 3.5 V8i

I have renewed today for 12 months with Admiral, no mention of needing Tracker.
It just really bugs me that my quote had gone up by £40 from last year, but after 10 minutes on “Go compare” and a five minute call to Admiral, I have got it down to £25 less than last year with the same cover exactly from Admiral.
Small change from £400.00

Mmmm. All confused...


Didn’t need tracker last year

I have the Range Rover built in control, which I assume is a tracker. CONFIRM ANYONE?

anyway this year saga ( I didn’t say that) wanted an extra £100 +

Did all the searches...didn’t get any joy until I said it had the tracker & price came down to £300. Liv vict. Filters are in fact so good that in certain circumstances, when the ambient air is already polluted, a diesel car will tend to extract more particles from the air than it emits. Emissions Analytics worked with........etc etc

He who dies with the most toys wins...

You do need to hammer A-Plan -- I actually got cheaper quotes from elsewhere, but took that back to A-plan and they got within £20 -- so went with them -- no tracker required -- They placed me with Markerstudy (new name for Zenith)

Have to say they've been pretty good since someone decided it was a good idea to write-off a Citreon C1 into the back of me at 40MPH whilst I was stationary!

only just seen this thread so firstly... apologies for arriving late to the party

Trackers - tends to be more down to value, so if your vehicle has increased in value then the new need for a tracker makes sense, there are ther factors like if a lot of theft in your area but this isn't commonly seen - it's mainly value. It could be that your insurers have changed their value limit for not requiring a tracker, some insurers say over £40k, some over £50k for example but their policies do change when reviewed so this may be the reason.

Also, in regards to renewal, at A-Plan we do like to refresh details as it comes around... we speak to most people once a year and we miss you so do like a chat at renewal lol but seriously, minor changes can impact premium so it's worth just having a quick run through to make sure we are quoting correctly: you may have changed occupation, use the car slightly less now, or maybe it's not needed for work anymore... all are common things that people forget to tell us so we sent out invites based on last years details. I'd be rich if I had £1 for everytime I've been told "everything is the same I don't need to update anything" for them to then mention later in conversation they are no longer married... but their wife/husband is still on the policy oops! For the 5 minutes it takes to check details - it's definitely worth making sure your info is correct.

If we have an alternate rate we can go to some insurers with it and ask if there's anything they can do, sometimes they will reduce their premiums but not always - no harm in asking though it's our job to try and get the best price and cover for you so if there's a chance we can use your alternate rate to speak to insurers further then we will

That being said we can't win them all but it's worth checking again at renewal as insurers requirements and schemes do change when they review them
