Tell them:

Take of business use / commuting (they seem to leave this on auto)
You're a member here
You have access to other cars

[s.mac]

also limit the miles, they do various options.

[shimmy]

Mine did same, and it was business use. Take that off if you can and it goes back to old price.

[CLAYTON]

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL Mine done the same from £600 last year to £860 had to limit the miles to 4k from 6k last year then come back down to £680

[plumber vic]

Thanks guys will call them monday

[Graham]

Do they have an age limit on M3's? Keep forgetting to ring them and ask. Alot of companies are over 25's only

CCI are telling me my CSL no longer meets their sports car scheme. and have increased my premium from 850 to 2000 :bigcry:

Whats this all about? Can anyone shed and light?

They want to know its a 3rd car, not for business use and something like under 5k a year.

That should get it back to the normal price.

Also do a screen shot if your a paid member and get discount.

They know I have other cars. plus pork is insured with them. checked business is off and they have my membership. :bigcry:

Lyndsey has replied saying its because of changes to anyone under 35 insuring an M3?? and the number of claims?

Thats not good!!!

[EVLXGE]

Thats not good!!!

Nope!! Ive emailed back for more info. But she just said hands are tied and if your under 35 and wanting to insure any M3 it not longer fits the sports car scheme.

Even a quick money supermarket search wiped 1k off what they have just quoted.

Anyone under 35 and when did you last renew with CCI?

Fcking insurance

[billyboysm3]

Mines up in June time.

Might be worth checking with Northern Jim to see who he uses as I remember its the same sort of outlet as CCI.

Northern Jim over to you?

[Jon8710]

im 29 and i insure with admiral for under a grand, i know you dont get the track day ins but i need a multi car pol....

might be worth a look

is it just CCI that the M3 insurance has gone up with or is this a blanket thing ????

[outnumbered]

It'll just be CCI.

[EVLXGE]

I was insured with Admiral before but CCI were a lot cheaper. They have confirmed anyone renewing thats under 35 years will not be eligible for sports car policy on M3. So premium will more than likely shoot up.

To be fair to CCI they are seeing what they can do but it doesnt look hopeful. Time to shop around I think.

[Neil M]

Aren't CCI's underwriters AXA? If that's correct then all the big boys will follow suite.:bigcry:
CCI are after all, just specialists dealing with 'Competition' car insurance and are part of a much larger group; Towergate. :(
It would appear by this somewhat startling revelation, that they are now just a car another insurance company for Grandads.:whistle: with 'Competition' thrown in for effect.
Time to reconsider their position in the marketplace as the No1 for CSL's, and seek alternatives upon renewal.:thumbs:

[karbonkid]

I dont believe this!!
After 5 years of trying to get a quote with CCI I thought this year would be my big break but as renewal comes round they go and up to 35 years!! ARRRGGHH... :banghead: :hahaha:

I got this reply:

'Unfortunately due to underwriting changes, we are not able to offer insurance on the M3 until all drivers are over 35.
I appreciate you giving us the opportunity to quote you SO MANY TIMES but these changes have been made by Aviva the underwriter.'

So peps that are currently on the 'sports car policy' under the age of 35 with CCI just get an increase in premium. Others that aren't just simply get turned away?

They can still insure you under their “Competition Car” scheme. Just doesn't include the free trackdays! Thats still with Aviva, Odd.

[Pip1968]

Neil, I think it Aviva not AXA. I want to know who all these policyholders are who are crashing their cars whilst insured by CCI .... mind you it must be all those sub 35 year old youngsters :-D .

Not guilty....it would actually need to move out the garage to be crashed. :banghead:

CCI come good (Sort of) sorted a renewal less than half first quoted but as Karbonkid says no more track cover for under 35's. Anyone with current policys will get the good news at renewal.

[LeinsCSL]

Bit of a PITA if they've discontinued that sort of policy, but with regards to expensive quotes, can you not get on the blower and start haggling?

I'm with AXA over here, and was paying €800 last year as a 35yr old / 5k pa / SD&C with full protected NCD. This year they put it up to €879, so I rang them up and said I'd take both cars elsewhere if they didn't sort it out, expecting them to drop it back to €800 again

2 mins of hold muzak, and back they came with €650 :thumbs:

[Neil M]

I knew it began with 'A' :hahaha: docs are at home, I was in the office having a quick coffee.:thumbs:

[Chris-CSL]

I think mines around £550 with Admiral 10k Limit

of course no track days included (something i need to sort for May :P )

[billyboysm3]

Type in Classic car insurance with trackday cover in google.

A load of companies come up, like this:
http://www.classiclineinsurance.co.uk/bmw-insurance/

Then one of us can ring a few of them up and ask the question and see what they can offer us in terms of discount and TD cover and if possible for under 30's.

Im in the office all week so can ring a few up tomorrow and see what they say.

I suppose you could regard the CSL a 'Classic car' soon. :-D

Just called that company to check Billy. They dont cover this type of vehicle and interestingly wont cover trackdays organised by companies like Goldtrack, Easytrack etc... Only trackdays through someone like BMW Car Club. You may find the same elsewhere.

[dave wilkinson]

i'm in the same boat, will be shopping around at the weekend for prices. will update on here if i have much luck. be nice if we could find someone to insure us young spunks and include trackcover?. i was very happy with cci, shame most of us have gotta change now.

please update if anyone has any luck as i suspect if we find someone they'll be getting alot of csl's :beer:

[rstoughy]

I must be getting old,
Renewal through the door last week for the CSL (from CCI) coming in @ £480 with 8k miles per year and the usual TD's.

:supz:thats good Paul,I had to drop down to 5k per year to keep mine the same.:(

[Yanto]

I think that's because you drive slower, hence more time spent in car to achieve 5k.

More time in car = higher risk of accident.

Factor in age....

They're either gonna up your premium or down your mileage.

AVIVA are very odd ;)

Right, just rang these guys:

http://www.classiclineinsurance.co.uk/modern-classics/

Spoke to Amy.

My policy - age 32 = £450, prices will vary with postcode and any speeding offences.

They do track day cover, if MSV etc = £75 per day.

Under 5k miles.

Mark, CCI may be charging you for "commuting" on you policy. Get it checked out with them as Aviva (the underwriter) are charging for this option this year, whiles it was FOC year before. Removing "commuting" (unless you need it) will probably reduce your premium :thumbs: it did with mine, by about 25% :-D

[JezP]

Just got mine in 442.00 4000miles good for wandsworth london although it does sit in fort knox :smokin:

[EVLXGE]

Who are people using as a point of contact at the moment at CCI?

I normally deal with Lyndsey. Last week I got an out of office, this week a failed delivery. Im working in Africa with little or no mobile signal for the next few weeks or would just pick up the phone. :banghead:

Lyndsey.Farmer@towergate.co.uk

Anyone know if she's left? and if so who i could email?

Cheers :notworthy:

[shimmy]

[EVLXGE]

Ah ok thanks Shim. Be good if anyone has latest email address/POC.

[Mark CSL]

[EVLXGE]

[shimmy]

Yes Bret but your nearly up for retirement and they know how fast you are on track, I'm surprised you pay £100.00

& Shimmy, what's your quote total ?

& Shimmy, what's your quote total ?

It was £535 but today I remembers to tell them about 3 more points and a written off 7 series so it has moved (up) just a little bit :(

So how many points in total :whistle:

[shimmy]

So how many points in total :whistle:

Just 6 but the written off adds 4 demerit as well so I'm over 6 demerit so I have added £300 to my insurance this year.

[CraigMillwardCroft]

How many points make a difference as just picked up a few :whistle:

[shimmy]

How many points make a difference as just picked up a few :whistle:

I think they said extra cost every tiem you add 3 demerit point and SP30 is 2 demerits and accident at fault is 4 demerits. So I added 6.

[CraigMillwardCroft]

Cheers Shimmy I hope the 3 due to collect will have no affect, as won't on the truck insurance.

[Neil M]

Sounds like school, 6 demerits = a weeks detention! :hahaha:

I guarantee you never had a detention Neil :hahaha:

[GregorJP]

I just added another 3 points to my existing 3, yet when I renewed my policy with CCI, the price was the same. Happy days.
