Re: Insurance Quotes
Got a rather disappointing increase in premium from Adrian Flux this year, but they found some wiggle room to counter the offer made by theAA, at £445 for 8500 miles, £500 excess, with no premium add-ons. Tried A-plan to no avail. They couldn't get near, although the fella on the phone was somewhat...

Re: Insurance Quotes
We prefer modified or imported vehicles but having said that, we insure an awful lot of standard UK RX8's for members on here.Davholsea wrote:skyinsurance wrote:

Re: Insurance Quotes
Just tried Sky (found in members area) and amazingly using the same details as above but WITHOUT business use they came in at £400!!! I asked why they were getting on for double what I'd found from others and he couldn't answer. (I actually didn't ask if that included members discount but did tell ...

Re: JAE: Japanese auto extravaganza
Is this the first time the RX8-OC has attended JAE?
It's a great show, you will not be disappointed, I've gone every year for 7 years.
Cheers

Re: Insurance Quotes
Reading the forums I see an advertisement for Sky Insurance and think "Worth a shot right?" So I phone them and after 2 rings a friendly guy answers the phone and we go through the details, I even declare my mods on the car (which I've never felt brave enough to do with Aviva) and he goes...

Re: Insurance Quotes
You also need to take what people say/write with a pinch of salt, eg when you see a post with a modified car insured at a very cheap rate with an internet price comparison site insurer who do not actually insure modified cars

Re: Insurance Quotes
REIS would cover me for ~£300 without the trackdays included. I kinda think I'll leave the trackday cover included if I stick with REIS; at ~£12 per (included) trackday, it's got to be worth keeping :D. I asked REIS what would happen to my policy premium (as the road and track elements are combined...

Re: Insurance Quotes
Sky were cheapest by a mile for me. Problem was I live in Central London, but Sky took account of my parking being off-road, although not on a drive or garaged. They undercut Swift Cover by over £500 and were cheaper than Adrian Flux and didn't demand an extortionate excess. Was good doing bus ones...

Be careful with that one Dave, with many insurers that 10 month NCB isn't worth the paper it is written on.

Re: Insurance Quotes
My car was 100% standard so that isn't the issue with your online quoting - it simply doesn't ask the right questions. I was told my quote was uncompetitive because you specialise in modified cars, which is fine but if that's the case then make that clear so people like me who have a standard RX-8 ...

Re: Insurance Quotes
And don't be duped by Sky offering club membership discounts ~ I undercut their quote by £300. There is no duping involved but thanks for that comment. Our discount doesn't mean we are going to be 20% cheaper than any other insurer , if this was the case, we'd be the only insurer in business :lol: ...
