I contacted the insurance company again only to find out the the quote has now more than doubled. My details have not changed, no more mileage, no claims and no convictions. The only change is the month i’m getting the car.
I have an XC60 T5 on order and I expect to have to go through the haggle process to get a good price. I do it every year at renewal anyway. Typically the quote goes up by £150 and I beat them down by about £145. This year I actually haggled to £8 less than last year. I do the usual thing of 'Oh thats a massive increase. Before I look elsewhere what's the very best price you can do?' If I don't get what I want, I ring off and ring back later to get someone else.

I would never ever let an insurance policy go on auto-renew. They just rob you.
