Hi
I use LV for my car and bike insurance, they are based in Poole, Dorset near where I used to live, they have been going for years, previous name was Frizzels insurance, really good price. They've only recently started doing Bike insurance.
I used them for years before moving to France, for cars, motorhomes, and boats.
Only needed to make a claim once but the service was superb , car was repaired and returned from the Ford garage within a week.
You need 4 years NCB before they give you protected NCB.
Any more than one vehicle insured with them and you get a discount for others.
Hope this helps
PB
