V12V standard Thatcham security category

[morty1961]

Hi its insurance time soon and just wondered what the standard fit alarm immobiliser security classification is on a 2009 V12V? Cant seem to find any reference to this in Grants book?

[cayman-black]

Ni idea, my insurance didn't even ask (saga)

[Manx V8V]

I think nowadays the general insurance question seems to be 'is the system after-market or factory fit?' if the answer is the latter the insurance company seem to have the info to hand for each car manufacturer.

cheers buddy …. Locktons are wanting a tracker to insure

This got me curious so I went on Thatchams site, and amazingly AM is not listed among manufacturers using standard fit Thatcham approved security, so I searched around and found this old thread, admittedly this relates to a DB9 but interesting reading!!

Unless you're completely set on Locktons (and trackers) for whatever reason then I would get a couple of other quotes. My insurance price is only about 1.5 times the cost of the Tracker subscription!

Interesting reading that thread Paul ?

Pete Locktons want £716 but the tracker reinstating and working......best quote so far is Elephant at £570 is the best on the comparison sites

Interestingly Lancaster want over £1600 WTF

Just waiting for my Saga renewal price to arrive to compare.

Also going to try Classicline, Hegarty + Alan & Thomas

Mine is a V8S rather than a V12V so maybe slightly cheaper but I've just renewed for £392 with NFU. Definitely worth giving them a call.

It was renewal time again for me this month. £388 from Manning on an agreed value policy. I shopped around as always and they were still best value

[Manx V8V]

I'm also with Manning, worth a try Lee.

Morty i paid £400 last year 2012 V12V i did up my access though i think its £1k.
As Pete recommends, NFU are good my SVR is with them, none of them has asked me for a tracker other than whats standard fit on the car, no tracker on the Aston.
