i know lots of people ask this question but my one is slightly different.

 

i have had a import about three years (i am 27)and have 4 years NCB and 3 points on my licence. The only mods i have declared are:

CHIP - BHP

stainless steel piping

bodykit

alloys.

cat 1+tracker

 

my renewal quote was £1345 and i thought i`d phone up and ask for discount at which point they told me the computer had made a mistake about the mods and my renewal would be £2000+. The problem is that i have phoned most of the companies recommended but all are quoting over £2000+. what can i do? i changed my zed for a more modified one this year and my premium wasnt affected that much!!! What should or shouldn`t i be declaring.

 

Does anybody have similar mods and what are they paying. i dont really want to insure 3rd party fire and theft!

 

please help insurance about to run out.

 

cheers

just called them they wont insure me until i am 30...............even though i have 4 years and had a zed for 3 years. apparently they dont rape virgins!!!!!!!

Well I can't help out with any insurance companies as I am already with Houghtons, however you really should declare all your mods (everything) as the last thing you need is invalid insurance.

 

Is yours an import? You could try elephant over the net but I think you have to call them and explain your mods :rolleyes:

cant believe how expensive you all get quoted!! I have a k reg manual t/t and am insured with Elephant.co.uk. I am 25 with NO no claims!!

 

They use to charge me £770 fully comp on my impreza turbo and when i asked about the z32 they gave me a rebate of £130 !! so i now pay £640 fully comp for my baby. I checked policy when it came through and yep all details are correct !! what a bargain !!!

http://www.confused.com is good, you tick the modification categories on the online quote bit. Having said that they couldn't find me anything (24, just had a claim, import TT)

 

I paid £2,200, second car, good p/c, tracker etc, this year for insurance :mad: but it worth it.

i got cover on a jap import with Club Norwich Union not the main quote me happy direct dept bods....i think its only avaliable through brokers though

happy hunting

hey karlosg that is a good quote...was it a 2nd car garage driveway limited milage quote or..what?

funny everyone seems to be quoted a shed load of money.

i suggest move to cornwall mine cost me £350 f/comp and i had it totalled last xmas for full claim

 

(norwich union)

Liverpool Victoria (make your own mind up)

Gave me a rebate of £120 when I swapped from the (heavily modded) scooby even though I keep it on the street and have written off 2 scoobies. Still payin around the £500 mark (lots of protected no claims and 33yrs old) fully comp.

 

Drivin Ivan

Jap SWB TT Manual slick top in cherry red pearl, 41/2" rear cans Brembo discs and porterfield pads (front only, rears still fitted to cardboard box) and 3 security systems.

ravi give houghtons a call again and say you are asking for a quote especially linked to the 300zx website and you are entitled to get a discount, they then put you through to a guy who sorts you out, as im only 27 3yrs no claims and got insured for 900ish fully comp all declared.

 

Good luck.

I don't know about everyone else but I am getting a wee bit worried that alot of these insurance schemes are either being stopped altogether or having big restrictions slapped on them compared to say just 6 months ago.

All the contact details you need are, amazingly, in the Traders area and the Houghtons Forum, under a thread called.. Contact details ;) Wow.. http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=34520

 

As has been said before, you will need to be a Subscribed (read: paying) member to be able to take up the discount they offer, otherwise your insurance will be legally invalid.

You sure about that?

 

I've only just insured my ZX with Carole Nash (13/11/04) on a classic policy for under £300. No problems or hidden nasties - they just had to check with the insurer about the induction kit and non-standard alloys.

 

Richard :)

I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:

I'm with Bell Direct 0870 5492000

 

£790 for a year's comp, 10,000 mile limit, standard car valued at £11K, I'm 30, full NCB, no points but I do apparently have a dangerous job (?!)

 

I called about 10 insurance companies and plenty wanted £1500+++
