I'm with CK, good price, nice people on the phone, very helpful.

Now a question, I would like to get my S60 D5 remapped next year (to about 190bhp and 300 torques)...will this cost me loads on insurance?

The good news is that we've negotiated a relaxation in the insurers' bhp criteria because the account is running well.

They've agreed to allow us to offer competitive quotes where you have upto a 100bhp increase (formerly 50bhp).

Give us a call and we'll see what we can do.

Well I rang...insurance increase of 20% and £150 quid excess increase. What the... I'm not about to pay nearly a grand to insure my car! Ridiculous, I'm nearing 30 with a clean driving record and no convictions what so ever. I bet it would cost less to insure a t5!

My insurance is quite expensive as it is...I don't understand why it would cost so much more. (the current cost is 780 ish with 15000 miles and business use).

Just a quick note to let you know that if your insurance is due before the end of June 2013 you could benefit from the Chris Knott SALE. And there's the chance to WIN an iPad Mini 16Gb WiFi just for getting a quote - http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=173319

Let's allow those members who are blessed with independent thought to make up their own minds about whether the VOC Insurance scheme might be worth trying in the mix at renewal.

Absolutely, and those that don't have lots of time to waste before discovering ageist policies, obfuscated minimum quotes, interminable waits on the telephone and general unhelpfulness can spend a few minutes reading the feedback provided by a large number of members of this site before deciding whether or not to pick up the phone.

I would love to comment on your quote but can't. I rang and gave my details, told them where I heard about your company and was told it was extremely busy and you would phone me back.

Over a week has passed and I'm still waiting for that phone call. I'm not falling over myself to call you back given your blasé attitude to new business.

I must say I am pleasantly surprised, Chris Knott seem to have got their act together. I got a friendly chap on the end of the phone who gave me a good quote and returned phone calls when he promised to. Net result Chris Knott have secured my business this year and I must compliment Gordon who dealt with my quote.
Well I knocked them previously but they came up trumps for me last year. I speak as I find and had no problems at all with them last year. Renewal due soon so I will update with my experiences again when I can.
