  1. Why you should request a CK quote this Autumn... Hi, if you were thinking about using a club sponsor for your car insurance but weren't quite sure whether it would be worth it (whether we can compete) you might be interested in 2 things about Chris Knott... 1. Personal service and attention coupled with competitive quotes. Chris Knott recognises that our car insurance quotes have to be competitive in order to win your custom. As we only work with car enthusiasts/club members we have access to insurer schemes that aren't available on comparison sites and the like. The

  3. Hi, two things quickly - 1. COMPETITION You'll know we've been running the 2017 Chris Knott Virtual Show & Shine on our social media channels - the chance for members to share pics of their cars with us in the hope of winning a decent prize. We've really loved seeing what cars members drive and from the 200 or so entries it was a tough job to pick a winner. However, I'm pleased to announce the winner of the 2017 Chris Knott Virtual Show & Shine as Ashley Gratton with his MkI Golf. Full details including the Top 5 finalists' cars here: https://www.
  4. Right, straight in with it... Congratulations to Philip Appleyard, a member of Volvo Owners Club, for winning our August draw. Philip has won a Platinum Supercar Blast plus High-Speed Passenger Ride or Photo. He gets track time in his favourite new supercar (6 to choose from) at his choice from 8 locations nationwide. Entrants qualified by requesting a car insurance quote during August (purchase not required). ANOTHER CHRIS KNOTT COMPETITION If you like the idea of winning one of our prizes we do have another competition running at the moment - the Chris K
  5. Thanks for a great August you brilliant lot! Maybe it was our Platinum Supercar Blast prize draw that attracted the calls or perhaps you've heard the feedback about the Chris Knott club and enthusiast scheme. Either way, we're grateful this end for you helping us to reach 129% of August's new policy target - our best month so far this year! It means we clearly have winning rates to offer members.

  7. Hi, I thought you'd be interested in this even if your car insurance isn't due just yet but especially if it is! There's some bad news but there's also some relief at the end... The bad news According to an industry report last week, Comprehensive car insurance premiums are now at their highest levels since 2010. The report reveals that the average premium rose to £847 during Q2 of 2017. That's an increase of £66 or 8.4% across the last quarter and £132 or 18.5% across the last 12 months. The report cites 4 main reasons: 1) the increase in Insurance P

  11. Hi, I thought some of you might like to see this interesting vid featuring one of the insurers we use to underwrite the club's car insurance scheme - ERS. Gumball 3000 organisers were looking for a specialist insurer to underwrite this year's event - a motor risk that includes Saudi princes, oligarchs and celebrities, driving prestige cars and imported vehicles worth over £30 million on a 3,000 mile journey through 10 countries. Most insurers ran a mile. ERS got under the skin of one of the world's most unique motor risks to underwrite the G

  13. Chris Knott - great prices AND service... Thank you to everyone who took up new policies with Chris Knott in April - our best month so far this year - you helped us reach 114% of our target! We're genuinely grateful for your custom. Our retention of existing clients at renewal was also much higher than expected in April. Evidence that we do have the great rates available for car club/forum members and enthusiasts that we claim. Here's what a couple of club members said: "It just gets better. My documents arrived today and my premium is only £300.50 which is
  14. Hi, The BBC News website reports: "Drivers saw their car insurance premiums rise by an average of £110 in the last year, a comparison site says. More expensive repairs and recent government changes to injury payouts pushed up annual insurance costs by 16%, according to Confused.com. It found drivers paid on average £781 on comparison sites for a comprehensive policy in the year to March 2017. Average premiums are set to rise to a record high and could pass £1,000 next year, it added. Newer vehicles have seen some of the biggest rises, because their increasingly complex electronics

  17. UK's car insurance premiums on the rise again. For those interested, here's a copy of an article we wrote for the Saab Owners Club GB magazine in early February about the potential for insurance premium increases across the whole market. "As we move into the year we know that Article 50 will be invoked by the PM and negotiations for our exit from the EU will begin. The EU has been blamed for much of the heavy regulation we see in UK industry. However, without influence from Europe, changes to personal injury claims are likely following a recent review by our own Ministr
  18. MORE GOOD NEWS: Extra prize opportunities added OK, so this prize just got even more exciting thanks to Silverstone... On top of the GP tickets you could win in the Chris Knott Prize Draw, Silverstone is adding the daily chance for ticketholders to win some 'money can't buy' prizes between 10th March and 23rd March. As we've already purchased the Chris Knott prize tickets those tickets are eligible for each day's entry in Silverstone's draw.

  23. There have been a couple of items in the news in recent days about the cost of car insurance... One claiming that comprehensive car insurance premiums rose on average by 14% (£95) during 2016 and the other that men still pay more than women even though gender equality rules state insurers can't specifically use gender as a rating factor. Of course, on the question of gender there are other risk factors that produce the result - men tend to cover more miles and are more likely to drive for work, have sportier cars and more motoring convictions. Those are each rated on fo
