Modifed car insurance

[devonvxr]

Can anyone give me some pointers as to the best places to look for insurance on a heavily modified R8, I have tried the usual suspects of Sky and Adrian Flux, are there any others around offering decent quotes?

[ARAF]

Bridle and Need to Insure are a couple that some use. There's another current thread which people have commented about both on.

Flux came good for me this time - a modified quote less than the standard quote two years ago! (which was why I left them at the time).

Need to insure for me

[Well_Fans]

Just renewed this week with bridle though with new insurer as previous one had jumped price by over 300 quid. Pity as they'd been good last year and had included 5 track days.

may be wrong. but did i not buy your vxr8 from you a year ago?

Thanks guys, Sky have quoted a decent price but will give the others a go.

If I remember rightly I did say you were getting your hands on a decent car good to hear she is as reliable as ever.

And yes mate, got my hands on a supercharged R8

is it worth creating an updated list of insurers for the FAQ?

[preciousmetal]

yes i think its worth putting an ins co. post in the FAQs as i get asked alot by buyers where to go for V8 insurance

thx JB @ Elite

The only problem with that, is that Flux are a major site sponsor. We don't want to be biting the hand that feeds us.

What's the problem? We've all phoned Flux for a quote and ...... then gone elsewhere. It's up to them if they want to be competetive [or not] , nobody's saying they're no good.

just a general list with monaro/vxr8/ute friendly companies

[ARAF]

You're both quite right.

It can't be worse than the monthly thread asking for recommendations.
