My premium with them has gone down

I was with Direct Line for over 10 years, then last year they hiked my premium by 100%, Aviva were only 20% over my existing premium. (Interestingly Aviva are buying Direct Line)

This year the premium has gone down 20% so I’m back to where I was 2 years ago.

I have a 9 year old car so not worth much, that may factor
