Came to renew my insurance and all quotes are nearly twice last years !! Used to be with Hagerty who don't do it anymore and paid less than £190.

Any ideas who might quote some where close to last years?

Just done my Griff with a company called Frank Pickles. You will have to google the number. £200.

Bluebottle,

I need to update my profile, I have had a few Jap cars R32, RX7, STi etc.

The R32 and the Griff are as different as can be. I liked my R32 it felt "right" when driving really well balanced but TVR's just have that intangible something that I haven't found elsewhere. That said, I had a 350bhp RX7 and that was something else - big flames every gear change. Weak engine though.

Thanks for all the help.

+1 thumbup

£380 for 7500miles and £250 excess. Had to jump from 5000 miles during last years insurance as I had exceeded the max mileage on the policy and it cost £57 to get an extra 2500 miles added to the policy.

Just to keep you all happy, my current premium on an S2 is just shy of £1700 with a £1500 excess (classic line) having spent 5 days on the phone. banghead

I am 22.

There are some advantages to being old wink

Just called them and they said they can't insure a 90's Griff, just the 60's ones...

I believe they have before - they obviously just don't like me :-) They're going to call me back tomorrow after submitting my details as a special case!
