    Insurance?

    Where would you go, post mods, for insurance?
    Forgotten what the thing looks like! Tuning taking a little longer than expected. Gonna be a belter when it's back though.

    Adrian Flux.. In past experience with them all they were interested in was horsepower, after that it was a do as you like affair..

    Same here. When we decided to get everything declared, we tried Chris Knott but they were hard to get hold of and took the piss with the quote - asking nearly 100 quid more than Adrian Flux.

    Had fun filling in the modifications declaration, the wife going "when the ££££ did you fit that" and "why are we declaring the spoiler? "

    220 quid to renew with our old company, 290 with A.F. With all mods declared.

    Interestingly, they'd only insure the car for the price of the modifications, meaning it's now worth 1500 quid more than it was before .

    So doesn't sound extortionate. I'm going to be somewhere just proud of 300bhp.

    Cheers.

    We just stick to Aviva, but go to Admiral first and then make Aviva match Admiral for us to stay with them. Been round some of the others mentioned above, and had issues because I'm up North.
