Currently with Adrian Flux and i pay £329 all mod's declared, phoned them up today for a quote for adding nos and they said you know we only insure wizard of nos kit's, i answer yes i'll be getting that kit and fitted by them at their HQ. Fine they say and i'll phone you back with your new quote, well they phoned me back at teatime with my new quote, £7000 :ffs: ??? :censor:

Said i was to young

Ken, 34 years of age with full no claim's, married with 2 kid's. Guess i'll have to be over 65 to get a policy with them then

I think Flux have had it. With any luck they'll go bust soon when they find out that no one wants to buy their policies anymore. I was particularly narked with the attitide of the chap who provided the quote, a complete *****!!

[Ken]

Ain't no mistake mate, 7 large one's for adding nos as long as it is the wizard of nos kit, which personally i think is the worse of the kit's out there

For a 3s-gte conversion, £800. Madness, sheer madness :ffs:

[Dame]

They obviously don't want anyone using NOS kits, hence the ridiculous premium!

They obviously don't want anyone using NOS kits, hence the ridiculous premium!

Yet they have a specialist nos insurance scheme

Lass on the phone said i'd try tesco's if i was you

[DeusMR2]

7g's!!!??? madness!

Goes back to what I said earlier IMO they're less than perfect!

[SMiFFAD]

LOL, your £7K quote is basically them saying "we'd rather not insure you" not a reflection of the true cos....

When you do quotes on confused.com or similar, you always get the odd company coming back with that sort of figure... its just they dont want to insure you, so they give you a crazy price knowing you wont take it, or if you do they rub their hands with glee :D

Cant remember who its with but Nick who owns the shock MR2 pays <£500 for his, and its one of the highest valued (from an insurance point of view) in the UK, with nos....... he's 40...

Tesco are a bit funny as well, rang than about my mr2....

"yes sir, we are the best for young drivers AND imports...... thats will be £1300"

- riiiiiiiiiiiight, you want to chare me half the value of my car, right on sonny!!

"youll find it hard to get a better quote sir....."

- next phone call to admiral, halfed it :arrgg-matey:
