Title: Don\'t insure with Tesco if you have modifications
Post by: chrisBoid on July 05, 2003, 01:52:40 PM
Hi all,

just finished getting a quote from Tesco, I\'d heard rumours they were quite good.

Before declaring any mods they were offering just over £1k  (25yrs old, 5 years no claims, £18k RX-7 RS \'96 etc), very reasonable.

After declaring over £11k worth of mods (the majority being cosmetic) and spending near 1/2 an hour on the phone the offer went up a tad...

£5k with £900 excess!

I am still laughing.  Jeez oh man that\'s funny.

Hi Chris,

Don\'t normally post this but it may well be well worth you sporting £15 to join the club to obtain a membership No and then ring AON they have assured me they will insure people over 24 with almost any mods bar NOS through our scheme with them .

Hope this helps.

All the best Clive

Title: AON don\'t touch you unless you are 30+ years old
Post by: chrisBoid on July 08, 2003, 04:36:13 PM
Just phoned Aon, they don\'t touch you unless your are 30+ :(
A-Plan reckon £3500-ish :(
Adrian Flux reckon £3000-ish (even before I had declared any mods) :(

I stopped there, too disheartened to continue.  Are these quotes normal for; -

25 year old
18k car
Lots of mods (99% cosmetic)
5 years no claims

I don\'t want to think about the consequences of failing to get my insurance quote down.  :(

Hi Chris,

l will talk to AON tomorrow and find out what they will insure you for / ref previous post.

p.s. the club has it\'s own contact to ring  but you need to quote a membership number , sorry.

Hi,

okay, I\'m sending my membership application today, I assume then, that a number is provided for AON after membership has been approved?

Chris.
