r2ck_p Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Hi guys, just getting my car insurance sorted on a Supra TT and rang LWIB due to recommendations on this forum, however due to my area they can't insure me. I live in Manchester, 8 miles from the city, in a nice area. So just so you don't waste anytime, if you live in Manchester don't bother ringing them.

johnny g Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Sky won't insure me either - and I've got a Liverpool and 2 Everton players living down the far end of my road! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hemmjonny Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Sky won't insure me either - and I've got a Liverpool and 2 Everton players living down the far end of my road! Maybe that's why as football players can't drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r2ck_p Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 Just tried GreenLight, the same as soon as I mentioned postcode they didn't want to know, Got HIC, Sky, Elephant, Need 2 Insure, Footman James, APlan on my list to call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r2ck_p Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 Okay and another one, Sky Insurance are not providing any quotes for people that live in Manchester, due a few large value claims recently ! HIC - As they are owned by Adrian Flux, can't beat the price I already have been quoted from them. This is just getting silly now !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_b Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Sky won't insure me either - and I've got a Liverpool and 2 Everton players living down the far end of my road! I'm not surprised. Those white convertible Bentleys running on 24" chrome wheels with spinners can do a lot of damage if they crash into you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Christ when I was 33, Footman James couldn't give me a quote for less than a grand on my NA. Maybe they have changed their policy? H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
