Bike Insurance - Interior designer constructs Jaguar bike



After two and a half years of brainstorming and hard work a Bermondsey man has built his dream Jaguar bike.

Barend Massow Hemmes, originally an interior designer, told reporters he came up with the idea of creating the iconic motorbike in 1997.

But he made up his mind to make it a reality after discussing his idea with another designer, Lee J Rowland.

Commenting on his success Mr Hemmes said: “It’s good a lot of people like it. I aim to bring joy to people. We live in a world with too much madness.”

The bike is the only one of its kind in the world and he plans, for the future, a design based on the Red Bull logo.

Although the bike is completely road worthy, the designer was yet to fully get it on the road because he was still working on sorting out bike insurance.

In the meantime, it is kept in mint condition for future shows.

Tesco launches motorbike insurance comparison service


Tescocompare.com, the comparison site, announces the launch of its motorbike insurance comparison service. The comparison site has revved up and extended its online comparison service, which now offers consumers the opportunity to compare the motorbike insurance market with deals from 22 brokers.

Uniquely, Tescocompare.com is offering a price-promise to UK motorcyclists who are aged 19 or over and who spend £75 or more on their premium - guaranteeing that the quote provided by Tescocompare.com is the cheapest available. Customers who believe they can get a cheaper quote elsewhere can call Tescocompare.com for free on 0800 089 8018, and Tescocompare.com guarantees it will beat the price.

The new comparison channel is also offering free legal cover worth £25 to any motorcyclist who requests a quote, even if they don't end up buying their policy through Tescocompare.com.

The comparison site automatically searches all three levels of cover - accessible by on screen tabs - so that consumers only need to search once for fully comprehensive, third party fire & theft, and third party quotes.

Top tips to help consumers identify how they can keep their insurance quote down are also available.

Matthew Dransfield of Tescocompare.com comments: "Everyone is trying to make their money go that extra mile in the credit crunch. Our customers expect great deals from Tescocompare.com and we're delighted to offer our new motorbike insurance comparison service to them. We offer motorcyclists a guarantee that we can find them the best priced insurance deal for their needs.

"Our motorbike insurance comparison service allows consumers to search the market place for the best insurance deals by comparing product features on a like for like basis. It also offers tips on how to lower insurance premiums and enables motorcyclists to search for quotes on all levels of cover.

"We are delighted to be able to extend the services offered through Tescocompare.com and aim to continue building a comprehensive comparison service for our customers."
