Excellent service from start to finish. The team took time to understand exactly what I needed and found me a great policy at a competitive price. Couldn't be happier with the whole experience.
Been with Chris Knott for over 5 years now. Easy renewal process and the team are always a pleasure to speak with. Proper UK-based advice you can actually trust.
After being let down by my previous insurer, Chris Knott made the whole process painless. Honest, straightforward, and friendly from the very first call. Highly recommend them.
Andy was brilliant - talked me through all the options clearly, no pressure, and found me a much better deal than the comparison sites. This is how insurance should be done.
I needed specialist cover for my classic Jaguar and Chris Knott sorted it quickly and at a great price. Really impressed with the level of knowledge and personal service.
Switched my home insurance after a recommendation from a friend. Very competitive premium and the whole thing was done in under 20 minutes. Very pleased with everything.
First-class service. I dealt with Emma who was patient, helpful and knew exactly what I needed for my thatched cottage. Got proper specialist cover, not a standard policy.
Genuinely good old-fashioned customer service. A real person who actually listens and helps you find the right cover. Wouldn't go anywhere else for my insurance now.
Had a claim last year and Chris Knott supported me throughout. Made a stressful situation much easier. Fair, fast, and professional - exactly what you want from a broker.
Renewed my multi-car policy today. Still the best value I've found anywhere and the team remembered me from last year. That personal touch really makes a difference.
Very helpful team, especially when I needed to add a modified vehicle to my policy. Talked me through everything and made sure I was properly covered. Excellent all round.

Efficient, clear, and competitive. I ran through three comparison sites before calling Chris Knott and they beat them all. UK-based team made the whole thing painless.
Outstanding from start to finish. I've recommended Chris Knott to everyone I know - my parents, my sister, and even my colleagues. They never let anyone down.
The service is what sets Chris Knott apart. You get proper advice from people who understand insurance, not a script. Worth every penny and more.
Cupra represents the performance division of SEAT, bringing Spanish flair and cutting-edge technology to the UK market. Since becoming an independent brand in 2018, Cupra has established itself as a serious player in the performance car segment, offering everything from hot hatches to electric SUVs.
The brand’s focus on performance, advanced technology, and distinctive styling creates specific considerations for insurance. Cupra vehicles often feature powerful engines, sophisticated all-wheel-drive systems, and advanced driver assistance technologies that require specialist understanding from insurers.
Many Cupra models also offer significant modification potential, from ECU remapping to suspension upgrades, which standard insurers may not properly understand or cover. Our specialist knowledge ensures that whether you drive a standard Cupra or one that’s been enhanced for even greater performance, you’ll have appropriate protection.
Our specialist arrangements cover the complete Cupra range, from the latest electric models to the established petrol-powered performance cars. Each model brings its own characteristics and insurance considerations.
For owners of earlier SEAT Cupra models or limited edition variants, we understand that these vehicles often have strong enthusiast followings and may be appreciating. Our agreed value policies can protect these investments appropriately.
Understanding the elements that affect your costs helps you make informed decisions about coverage and risk management. Several factors impact the cost of insuring a Cupra:
Your experience with performance vehicles can work in your favour when arranging cover. Insurers recognise that enthusiast drivers often take greater care of their vehicles and drive more responsibly than those who simply want the fastest car available.
Where you live and drive affects your premium, with urban areas typically commanding higher rates due to increased theft risk and accident frequency. However, specialist insurers often have more nuanced understanding of risk factors than standard providers.
Our comprehensive policies can be tailored to include a wide range of coverage options designed specifically for performance vehicle ownership.
Comprehensive Physical Damage - Protection against collision, theft, vandalism, weather damage, and other perils. Given the value and desirability of Cupra vehicles, comprehensive coverage is typically recommended.
Third Party Liability - Mandatory coverage that protects you against claims from other parties. We recommend higher liability limits for performance vehicles given their potential to cause more significant damage in accidents.
Personal Accident Cover - Protection for you and your passengers in the event of injury, providing financial support during recovery periods.
Modification Coverage - Protection for declared modifications and enhancements, ensuring your investment in personalisation is covered.
Track Day Coverage - For owners who participate in track events or driving experiences, we can arrange coverage that extends protection to circuit use under specific terms and conditions.
Breakdown Cover - Specialist breakdown assistance that understands performance vehicles and can arrange recovery to appropriate facilities.
Key and Lock Replacement - Coverage for sophisticated keyless entry systems and advanced security features that can be expensive to replace.
Our approach to Cupra vehicle insurance is built on genuine understanding of performance cars and the people who drive them. Our team includes enthusiasts who appreciate that choosing a Cupra represents a decision based on driving enjoyment rather than simple transportation needs.
We maintain relationships with specialist insurers who share this understanding and can properly assess the risks and benefits associated with performance vehicle ownership. This expertise often translates into more competitive premiums and better coverage terms than standard insurers can offer.
Our service means you'll work with experienced team members who understand your specific requirements and can adapt your coverage as your needs change, whether you're considering modifications, track day participation, or adding vehicles to your collection.

While age can affect premiums for performance vehicles, we work with insurers who assess each case individually. Factors such as driving experience, training courses, security arrangements, and annual mileage can all influence eligibility and pricing for younger drivers.
Not necessarily, but modifications must be declared to your insurer. Our specialist policies can often accommodate modifications when properly declared, ensuring your enhancements are covered rather than voiding your policy.
For special edition models, rare variants, or heavily modified vehicles, agreed value coverage may be available. This protects against depreciation and ensures appropriate compensation in the event of a total loss.
Standard road policies typically exclude track use, but we can arrange specialist coverage that extends to circuit driving under specific terms and conditions. This must be arranged before participating in track events.
Electric vehicles like the Cupra Born may qualify for specific benefits due to their environmental credentials and different risk profiles. However, they also require specialist understanding of electric vehicle technology and repair requirements.
Yes, we can arrange multi-car policies that may provide cost savings and administrative convenience. This is particularly beneficial for enthusiasts with collections of performance vehicles.
Our approved repairers have experience with Cupra vehicles and access to genuine parts through official channels. For modified vehicles, we work to ensure appropriate replacement parts are sourced to maintain your vehicle's specifications.
