suprasam Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 I originally got my insurance quote from Admiral who were very competitive and provided an excellent quote BUT now i am looking for a manual i returned to re-quote with a manual and i can't see it listed at all???? THey have Auto, Auto (import), turbo, turbo (import) etc etc the only one that doesn't mention a turbo or auto is FI???? any ideas i need to clarify the insurance is all good on the Manual although i can't believe its going to be much different from the auto. Any ideas guys?? Suprasam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 why don't you try sky insurance ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Admiral are the same company as elephant - for many of the cars you have to call them for a quote (chances are they have the car as a MK3) My advice is to keep well away from them; they are absolutely hopeless and have a terrible reputation for paying up. Not only that but they won't insure many common mods like dump valves. Try the club insurer Sky (they have saved many members a ton of money). I'm with A-Plan Special Schemes who gave a great quote and seems to have a better reputation for paying up. Cheapest is not always best!!

suprasam Posted April 15, 2005 Author Share Posted April 15, 2005 Fair comment will try Sky - do they open on sat?? I was pleased with the quote i had from Admiral as it was really competitive but like you say if they are an arse to get to pay up then it may not be best. Will see what Sky say - do i tell them i came from here or does that make no difference?? Suprasam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Cheapest is not always best!! Indeedy. Admiral were absolutely useless when I was with them for 6weeks. It was their pig-headed contrariness that made me want to walk out in front of a bus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Will see what Sky say - do i tell them i came from here or does that make no difference?? Yes mate, tell them you're from the club. I have no idea if they're open Sat's, guess you'll find out for us tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 How old are you ? I think if over 25 then Liverpool Victoria are good and they don't car about Mod's either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 hi ive been with admiral for a number of years, havnt had any problems and quotes and renewals have been excelent. but then again i havnt crashred my car, touch wood . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 ive been with admiral for a number of years, havnt had any problems Admiral are happy with completely stock cars. But when it comes to mods - even basic ones then they don't want to know. Ask them about a Turbo Timer, HKS SSQ BOV, DEFI BF Gauges. They told me that the Turbo Timer is deemed as a Turbo upgrade. The sound of the BOV will attract thieves & the DEFI BF Gauges are unncessary instrumentation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Liverpool Victoria no longer insure modified cars for new customers. Does that mean they will also stop the policy at renewal stage for existing customers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnK Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I have no idea how this effects existing customers, I called them a couple of moonths ago for a quote and was told they wouldnt insure new customers with mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
