Ignition Select - thoughts?

I've just shopped around after receiving my car insurance renewal and have got a quote from a company called Ignition Select for over £200 less than my current insurance renewal price.

Has anyone had any dealings with them before?

    They are a Broker based in Ipswich. Never used them though.

    £200 cheaper that all the comparison websites? I would be looking for the mistakes on the paperwork with a fine tooth comb.

    Have they given you more no claims then you really have? Car the same exact model? Occupation correct?

    Exact same car model, legal cover included, correct no claims and occupation and a cheaper excess!

    I have had 2 fault accidents in the past 4 years so my premiums are high at the minute.

    Ignition Select, as far as I was aware at the time of my comparison search, was the insurer.

    That's common with Brokers though, you often don't know who the insurer is until the cover note/certificate arrives.

    Update:

    I called Ignition Select, who seemed very helpful and confirmed that the details I gave were correct. I also enquired about who the policy would be with and they told me that it would be with Zenith. They also mentioned that they underwrite their own policies but I'm not too sure what that means!
