I am currently insuring my 911 with Henderson Taylor on an Aviva underwritten policy which includes 4 track days in Europe or UK (Ring excluded!!) as part of the annual road policy.

Are there any other companies offering annual cover that includes TD cover for price comparison?

TIA

Thanks.
I'm sure I tried them before, IIRC they were an Aviva policy but with a Porsche price premium. Do they include TD cover?

The Porsche Club insurance now only covers two Porsche-organised track days in the UK. If you want far more comprehensive track day cover, get a quote from Manning.

+1 for Manning. Great track day cover (Europe as well as UK, unlimited number of days) and really competitive premiums in my experience.

They include trackday cover, yes.
I've just insured with them and they were by far the cheapest of all the Porsche 'specialist' companies.(and don't require the VTS)

It's done through Marsh Associates.

Actually, thinking back I think they only give 2 trackdays free (which is plenty for me!)

Try Bridle - they were very good with me on my boxster, and I got cover for 5 days included... it was nice to talk to a company with real people too, rather than call centre drones!

I originally had a policy through Aviva on my GT3, but now use R.E.I.S in Nott'm. Underwritten by Chaucer.

Annual premium includes 4 track days (UK & Eur, but not N'Ring), and then you can add further track days at a 0.50% of insured value, which (for me) is cheaper than individually arranged track day cover with Comp Car Ins and others.

Sensible risk assessments and underwriting, coupled with efficient and really good people to deal with that do what they say they will do - rare these days!

All depends on how many trackdays you plan on doing a year and what level of cover ( XS ) you want.

CCI give 5 free trackdays cover and 2 can be in Europe but not Ring - Benefit is they only charge an extra £1000 XS ontop of your annual policy when on track.

Mannings cover any amount of trackdays but the XS is 10% the value of the car

I have no knowledge of the others mentioned but I presume they will be similar ( REIS being a trading name of Chaucer )

All other things being equal , driving a GT3 for no more than 5 trackdays a year, CCI win out for me this time round but its bound to change and I always ring round come renewal. Additionally CCI will let you have an additional 2 trackdays for very cheap money ontop of the 5 if you want that little extra still with the lower XS.

Well I tried Manning, REIS and CCI.

As said above Manning usp is unlimited track days.
REIS premium was about the same as Manning.
CCI said that Henderson Taylor use them as a middle man for cover so effectively they are the same policy and price so they reffered me back to HT
Quick negotiation with Matt at Henderson Taylor and we managed to agree a competitive price which includes 4 track days, which as my car is fast road focussed weekend only use suits me fine.

I would advise ringing the above and see what they can do for you.
Interestingly the price I ended up with was about 100 quid more than my best non track day cover price, so I reckon break even is just over 1 track day and at 4 its well worth it.

Cheers for the replies.

Just renewed with them again this year, best price I could find which included Aviva direct. Think it's 3 trackdays, I probably won't get to use this benefit anyway so it doesn't really bother me.
