Will CIS not match any other insurers quote?

I'm with HIC and they tried to put my insurance up one year so I rang round other places and they dropped the price significantly when I rang them back and told them the quotes I had got from elsewhere.

So he had 3 cars and was only insured on one? He thought he could drive the other cars with one policy? Was anyone else insured on the other cars? If not he was driving without insurance.

1) the vehicle is not owned by your employer etc.
2)hold a full EU lisence
3)use of the vehicle is covered on the certificate of insurance
4)cover is not provided by any other insurance
5)vehicle is in a road worthy condition
6)you still have your vehicle and it has not been fucked up
