You will no doubt see a lot of negative comments about Flux. I've never been insured with them, and my last attempt at getting a quote merely reinforced my poor opinion of them. More to the point, their TVRCC approved scheme was massively overpriced, and even their more competitive non-approved scheme was 50% higher thna I could get elsewhere. I'm currently with Classicline, who've been insuring TVRs for years, and who I find to be very good on price, particularly since my Wedge is somewhat modified.

Does anyone know if Rh do modified cars? I'm having a bit of bother getting the 200 insured properly with the 2.8 motor in it.

Hegarty didn't worry about it but they dumped me last month because the car isn't pre 82. It was regisered in April 82 I think. What a stupid policy.

I've been insured with them for the last few years on a modified 200.

performance direct for me £152 per year with agreed valuation, means if it goes up in smoke or gets pinched you get your money back, or if you smash it up and they write it off, you can do a deal to keeep the car and still get the majority of your valuation back.

If i did mate it would be the cheapest on the market..The reason for keeping stoom is i have the worst case scenario..Hardly any no claims..No garage..Unlimited miles and live in a high insurance area..Im just glad i have one arm and one leg left...

As I mentioned, AF were good to me after a rear wheel came off my car at speed and some erm damage was done. redface

By the way, first job...check those rear hub nuts of yours, especially the nearside one (still right hand thread). Should be torqued up to 230lbs. smile
