Car Insurance Quote Spreadsheet?

    We've 2 cars so twice a year I have to shop around and find a good deal for insurance, usually with good results but I want to streamline the process a bit.


    I'm thinking of putting together a Google Sheet template with a list of all the car insurers in Ireland (list from here: https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057619504&page=1#post100288469).


    Does anyone else have something similar they'd be willing to share?


    The plan is to also add any discount codes found here or elsewhere so they're all in the one place.

    The only problem I see with this is that insurance prices are rarely the same for any two people even from the same insurance company. There are alot of variables that come into it including variables that are unique to the person seeking insurance. It would be a great idea if insurance prices were bought off a fixed menu but alas they are not. Even if you and me tried to insure the same car and we both had the same driving experience you can be guaranteed we would get different prices from even the same insurance company.

    As much as I hate shopping for insurance every year I have just accepted that in order to get the best cover at the best price I have to spend time shopping around.

    Sorry should have specified, this is a mostly blank spreadsheet that you fill in the details of the quotes, reference numbers, excess, extras included etc.

    It's just a starting point, the work will still need to be put in getting the quotes.
