Lancaster and Sureterm have both been cheap for me in the past. If you get a quote via Quidco compare after cashback it can be very cheap indeed. My last renewal on a 325i cab was under £100 for the year fully comp and with a 5K mileage allowance.

but there about a million factors that will determine whether or not its as cheap for you.

Everybody's circumstances are different, and every insurance brokers requirements are different, so you'll need to contact them all to see what the best quote is for you.

Also as a bit of advice, always ring them don't do internet quotes, I find the classic specialists are always massively open to bartering on the phone
