You can ring various insurance companies and ask to speek to their underwriters and explain that you've invested x amount of money into your car and you wish to insure your car for a value that would allow you to get a like for like replacement value.

 

Not all will be interested, but some will though the premium will be higher than normal.

 

My insurance company asked for photographs and copy recipts for the parts installed though they would not insure the labour values other than bodyworks. It costs me £900 per anum and I have a garrenteed total loss value of £18,000 and in case of it being written of a garrenteed salvage buy back of £3,000.

I am getting similar quotes myself bud, what do you mean guaranteed salvage buy back of £3K, does that mean they give £18K minus the £3K charge or something?

In effect yes. Normally the Salvage value of your car is based at 20 or 25% of the total loss value the insurance company agree with you. However I just told them that I wanted £18K based on what it would cost to buy a car and rebuild the same again. Then I said that I wanted to pay no more than £3K for the salvage of my car should it be written off.

 

They then looked at the fact I've had 4 cars insured with them for 12 years. That My mothers car and outlaws cars etc are all now insured with them via my introduction. The fact that at that point I had never made a claim and came back with a figure of £900 per anum as a good risk to them.
