Both Cars' Renewal Due Soon - Any 'Multicar' Comparison Sites?

Hi all,
Both of my cars' insurance renewals are due within 4 days of each other in the coming month. I got an Admiral MultiCar quote last night which was extremely good, but I wanted to see if there was a better quote out there for insuring multiple cars with the same company.

Does anyone know whether such a site exists? Confused etc don't seem to allow for multiple car quotes.

Thanks
Rich

    just an idea-i just insured my car through quidco with lloyds tsb-one car and got £75 cashback through quidco-so from 176.40 (existing provider quoted same within pennies to renew) to 101.40-if u insured both cars on there in seperate transactions you could get £150 back?? big saving for me !
    sue
    quidco free to join and only charge £5 a year in admin (taken from your earnings) changed all house/contents/life cover/got free creidt check etc-made £320 in 8 weks and saved a bundle too-all good !!
    even god cant change the past-no matter how many times i cry

    We insure 2 cars at the same time too and I haven't come across a site which only searches for multicar policies. I have to either use a companies site and ask for 2 quotes or I call companies and ask for 2 quotes, you usually get a discount for insuring 2 cars with them.

    You might get a bit of discount by giving the 2 cars to the one company, but nothing like the discount leoetal19 has suggested you will get if you take out 2 separate policies via quidco, where they are offering cashbacks currently up to £100 per policy.

    depends on the cars you're insuring, and your circumstances ;)

    True, but there are more than 30 insurance companies paying cashback via quidco.

    From around £25 per policy up to £100. So double that if you have 2 cars - it's hard to find a policy giving you that kind of discount for giving them 2 cars.

    like i said, it depends on the cars. i drive a group 20 car. my second car is group 17. when i bought the second car, my insurers (who don't give cashback) matched my max NCB on the 2nd car. The first policy costs about £1000. 2nd policy (with zero ncb) should cost about £1500, but I get it for £600ish.

    There's no cashback that would equal the £900 saving!

    so don't just limit your search to cashback insurers. matched NCB can be far more effective!
