The car will be fitted with an Autowatch 160 RLI Cat1 alarm immobiliser system manufactured by Nightwatch Ltd. (www.autowatch.co.uk, 01732 886777, sales@autowatch.co.uk). You could confirm this with Noble Cars.
I hope this helps.

Admiral Multicar was good for me if you are not using it as a daily driver.

Well got insured with admiral for a really reasonable amount on a multi car policy, seems actually to be a good deal compared to the other crazy quotes i got!

I`ve just insured my car with Competition Car Insurance - 0844 892 1966. The policy is underwritten by Aviva, they do limited mileage versions, aren`t too bothered by modifications to the vehicle and you get 5 track days insurance as well, (with a higher excess). I saved about a £100 compared to my previous insurer - Footman James).

Admiral won't touch it if it's modified in any way. Competition car insurance if it's modified! smile

Not true.

I've just insured ( less that a month ago )the Nob with Admiral multicar ( £440 with no NCD ( as I've been on a Classic Policy for a number of years, so no NCD in, but none out either ) ).

I declared a none-standard exhaust and a power increase of up to 10 %. That was confirmed on the phone and it's in the policy document. But, If I had a 20% power increase then they would not insure me.
