jacko Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Just looking through insurance quotes (just incase theyve magically gone down) and i went onto confused.com and got an unbelievably cheap quote from Elephant. So i carried on to the Elephant site and was greated with this Quote summary Your car details TOYOTA SUPRA RZ 1794cc TWIN TURBO IMPORT 2000----- Must have been a one off they did.........

The Restorer Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 At 21-22, on my first insurance policy I was paying £800 with Elephant on my UK Supra. It had come down £200 after I added my dad on the policy. That was on a UK Supra and I think Elephant charge more for imports. Also Elephant and Admiral are the same company and I have also been led to believe their offers when you do make a claim are lower than most other companies.

Pot Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Also with Elephant when you insure your mods, they'll charge you extra but will only replace them with standard parts if they get nicked... I found that our when I insured my wheels so I'll be changing at renewal time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a bit crafty... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I swear the throw the odd one in there on purpose just so they can turn around in the even of a payout and say "Sorry, your car doesn't match your selection - we did tell you to check the paperwork" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
