My car is near mot, so looking at insurance.

As per other threads and searches, i have a few numbers to hand. I tried footman james and im not getting cover due to the extensive modifications but mainly due to the roll cage and back seats being missing.


Who had a car insured with similar mods and which companies will cover?


thanks phil

HIC cover mine no problem, plus do NCB matching if you insure with two cars.

I was with insureyourmotor.com a few years back, they allowed a rollcage, it didn't half put it up though, really surprised me as I tried to argue it was a saftey feature, they reckon it makes it more desirable to steal :confused:
I think performance direct may as well.

Cost me £600 fully comp with 4 yrs NCB all mods declared IIRC.

they always chance it, don't be shy about demanding it cheaper.. i got a cracking deal on my van the other year, he started at £700+ and i went in at £400, ended up at £460:agree:

Nah my NCB was on my daily driver at the time, plus on classic policy's you dont accrue any NCB anyway...

Like has been said, haggle with them, I think I used a quote from Jason at Sky Insurance to beat them up on price.
