I noticed Elephant quoted the exact same prices when I searched for new policies.
Just showed that the adverts talking about Elephant being cheaper as it was only only was complete bull (at the time).


IIRC some Elephant policies were much cheaper because they were 10 month policies, as in not paid for over 10 months, but actual 10 months worth of insurance.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Elephant are owned by Admiral (Group) anyway.

Edit: I see James has beaten me to it. :oops:

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Auckland, North Island, New Zealand, Middle Earth.

Insurance is very cheap here due to ACC. Although they collect most of their funds through Road Tax (Rego), it is generally cheaper for the end user than in the UK. And that even covers that insurance is elective. :shock:

It appears to be a great way to keep the lawyers at bay.

Different country so no wonder it is so much cheaper than the UK.

Minor security issue on the server so we suspended all the accounts on the server whilst we investigated.
