CJ Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Really? Still a group 19 though. so £1300 you'd say was bad, for a £25 yr old i would have said that was about right, But insurance is a funny old thing and never makes sense I paid £150.00 less to insure my NA when i changed from an FTO which was odd, but there again insurance companies class the FTO as group 20 My quotes were weird anyway £150 less than the FTO for a N/A £10 more to insure a TT Currently pay £297.00 fully comp protected for my NA with a Cat 2 Immobiliser fitted Although some insurance companies class the NA as a grp 20 as well, Always pays to shop around, Many want trackers and all sorts of rubbish Basically a Cat2 immobiliser is what most want so the car is simply dead, Alarms aren't always the best as usualy the damage is done by then anyway, and most people don't take notice of alarm sirens anyway, I've found over the years of Import and Sports car ownership that most companies just insist of a Thatham approved immobiliser .

blitz supra Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 What is interesting though with insurance companies (forget the TTis this though) is when they ask is it a import, I think i'm right in saying all NA were import and nver official over here? Which seems a strange question for them to ask and why therefore should they put a premium on the policy, On the otherside of the coin why should a J Spec TT be higher than a UK spec, Basic repair work for insurance companies would be the same surely. Cost of a wing would surely be same whether UK or Jap? Over the years though there has been a huge drop in premuims for imports, Perhaps insurance companies have finally seen the light .. The same goes for dealerships they finally jumped on the band wagon and saw money was to be made from Imports, Mitsubishi in particular, they hold a 25% parts holding of Import parts, Subaru seems to be the only ones still making it difficult p.s Is that better CJ ??
