Insurance for under 25\'s, import, with modifications

[ScuttleRX]

Someone please help cos these insurance companies are giving me a huuuge headache.

I have a decent quote for my car as it is, but I have a few more modifications planned in near future (some are currently en route!) and the place i\'ve got the quote from wont accept any more modifications.

Can someone recommend someone who is mod friendly, ive already tried these:
Elephant (no comment)
Admiral (who current quote is with)
Norwich Union (only 3 mods allowed)
Adrian Flux (no under 25\'s)
Budget (no imports)

Cheers

Andy

try Basildon Insurance (they are a broker but did me a v good deal on the Gen 2 and STi combined) speak to Charlotte no: 01268 270886 don\'t know on the age front, I\'m 30 and therefore and old git (has some advantages :rollin )

There are lots of threads like this, your best bet is to use the search function and go through them

Adrian Flus gave me a quote a while ago and I was 23

Tesco is probably your best bet

[ScuttleRX]

Cheers for that, i\'ll give them a try.

Wish the company\'s would have some consistency, thats why I made a new thread as they seem to change there policies every day

what a nightmare, i hate this time of year....

Whats mods have you declared to Tescos Dave if you don\'t mind me asking

[davefrith]

Everything I need to declare

righto, just wondered how tolerant of them they were.

Type : Mazda Model: RX7
Sorry, no types of that model available, please correct error and try again.

Im getting so fed up:(

ahh the joys of rotary ownership

[davefrith]

Sod the online thing mate I just phoned them in the end

you can\'t really do your mods on line accurately anyway

you are getting high quotes how old are you ?

After a fruitless search I have had to go with Admiral, no more mods we have been told.

Oh well, bonnet and suspension will have to go in the loft for a year. I imagine quite a few other bits will end up there too in preperation for a more mod friendly insurer, or 25th birthday but hopefully wont be that long  

On the plus side a year will give me time to save for a nice shiny re-spray for when the bonnet goes on (prob spoiler aswell by then)

i\'m with adrian flux on my current car and they quoted me for an rx and i\'m 23, but my current underwriter with them won\'t insure me as i\'m fully comp with protected ncd. still a bit pricey though, will phone around next month as my insurance will be close to renewal. this could be a fun month or 2

[Steve Burnett]

Try Admiral. Best I\'ve had so far.
I called Tesco who told me within the last month they have stopped doing under 25\'s.

I HATE TRYING TO GET INSURANCE EACH YEAR!!!!!!

Yeah i\'ve just gone with Admiral, £1338 fully comp with 3rd party any car, £50 window replacement and all the extras. I\'m 24 with 2 years no claims, the car is an M reg type-R2 and is garaged with cat 1 alarm. I ddin\'t want to pay that much, but you have a very limited choice when you\'re under 25

Am just updating this:mad: Got my docs through checked them over and low and behold it said I was born in 1970, I\'m 24:eek: rang them up to correct it and they wanted another £800:reallymad so have had to cancel it At least i\'ve now managed to register my car, have done 460miles and I will be getting all my money back

But now I obviously need to find a company who will insure me on an import:rolleyes: I\'m 24 with 2 years ncb the car is garaged with a cat 1. Anyone any ideas??? Got an on-line quote for £960 fully comp with elephant for a uk car, but dare not ring them to quote me for an import as i think they are my only real choice.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I did get a quote from Tesco online a while back for an import and it was still quite alot of $$$. Tried to do an on-line quote this morning and it will no longer let me:( someone mentioned that they no longer insure under 25\'s on these cars  Will give them a call to check.

Cheers, Paul:)

[davefrith]

call them

They do insure under 25\'s, whats the factor in your details thats pushing up the premium ?
