this is my first post, so hi to everyone.
i was wondering if there are any traders here who can point me in the direction of a good insurance company offering traders policies and if possible give me an idea of policy prices for a trader working from home.
Im not new to this, i was in the trade for over 10years, the last 3 of that buying and selling myself, mostly moving cars around in the trade, it was my only source of income at the time and became a little hit and miss, i bought my own business in 2001 (not motortrade), but im experiencing a major downturn and need something to supplement my in-comings, the motortrade is what i know so its the obvious choice. I can still earn a living doing what im already doing so this would just be a side line. Any advice appreciated.
cheers

I use Zurich through a broker. A broker will be your best bet to start with IMO.

Also try this forum: http://www.dragon2000.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl

Think it might be Road Runner the number I gave, seems to ring a bell.
