Insuring an FD parked on the street

[rxangus]

Hi,

Just got my renewal for my FD through from A-Plan and it\'s gone up £120 since last year as Heritage Insurance can no longer underwrite it.

I see people are getting good prices from Peter Best but my FD is parked on the street and they don\'t allow that for a classic policy.

Has anyone got any suggestions what I should do? I\'m 41, 23 yrs no claims 3K miles per year no points, mild mods etc etc

Thanks

Angus

At the risk of sounding daft, any chance you can rent a lock-up or a garage off a neighbour not using there\'s nearby? I expect the money saved through going down the PB route would more than cover it.

Other than that, will insurers take credit for other measures like clamps, etc?

Yes could try that and might help in the winter etc. Just had to get all my shocks changed as Pip said they were the most corroded ones he had ever seen!

A-plan are currently sharpening their pencil to come back with a re-quote.....
