OK after being Dicked around today by an insurance company i am in need of some car insurance.

Needs to be able to cater for limited mileage, modified and be cheap of course, anyone able to help.

Thanks.

mine is insured as a TL at the moment 39euro a month fully comp :sad2::scratch:( i dont use it at all and the German sytems wont pick up the GT turbo)

when i was in the uk i was with adrian flux , they were the cheapest i could find at the time , although when i cancelled to move to Germany they charged me for the rest of the year to see the contract out ,,

i was with csi also once ,no deposit and a man came to my house the same day as calling with a laptop & printer and printed me a cover note :)

Yesterday i visited three company web sites for car insurance and all three asked to leave details and they will call back within an hour, guess what, over 24 hours and no calls from all three, i guess the car insurance business must be very busy as they have not got time to call back when promised.

Customer service sucks.

they'd probably all gone down the pub to celebrate after doing my quote. Did you ring them? When I spoke to them their quote was about £200 cheaper than their online quote. They were the only ones who didn't make me feel like I was in a pinball machine. I'll bet it's a different story when you claim though:D

Adrain Flux is one of the companys also to offer to e-mail you with the quote but i have not got that off them either so they really shine when it come to customer service, just hope that if i ever used them that their service would improve if i needed them.

I just got quoted 340 by them but i have zero no claims as its on the other car, i have managed to get it much lower then that though, to give you an idea Adrain Flux quoted 340.00 but Chaucer Insurance have just quoted 192.73 for the same policy.

Really these are also one of the companies that still as yet is to call back despite being promised, with the insurance company's being that busy god knows what they would be like if you had to claim.

i've had a meh with adrian flux on my pug 306 a few years back.

i'm with HIC now, although they were £20 more expensive than my cheapest quote, the benefits were brilliant - track day insurance & being able to drive anyone else's car third party(at my age) to name but a few. they seemed a little more organised than flux and everything went smoothly, i suprised they're owned by flux :scratch:

give them a bell mate.

Yep, all mods declared. However nothing 'big' on the car. Just filter, exhaust, silicone hoses, pace intercooler, 15s and hybrid.

It could be dependant upon area you live in, what you said the value of your car is, whether you pay in full or installments etc
