Insurance

[CoRoLLa_KiD]

Just had an arguement with a idiot from Nowich Union about putting a turbo engine into my mums SR, he didn't quite understand that I knew more than him about both the engine and car

So now he's lost them my mums business when it runs our in Jan ;)

Just wondering, who'd be the best place to insure a Starlet SR with the Glanza V engine. I ask because he was telling me that some places get iffy about modified cars.

And before anyone says... YES this is my mum, YES she wants a turbo engine, YES she is cool B) B) B)

This is her car, haven't posted it yet so why not :D

Try Adrian Flux.

I take you've admitted to the other mods as well...

Yea, this was my general arguement with him...

He was saying... no, we don't insure cars with changed engines. So I ran circles around him saying, ok what about a turbo conversion.

So he was blabbering on about uprating everything else, but you don't need to because the engine plops straight in and works fine. Then I asked...

"so you wouldn't insure us if I uprated the air filter"

He dissapeared for a few mins, came back & said yes we would with an increase in premium. So I just said ok, why can't you just increase the premium on a turbo engine, he told me to ring some number. I just left.

At no point did he know who I was or that both my Mum & I have policies with them (and my brother for that matter). You'd think they would employ people that knew what they were doing in the first place . All my Mum wanted to know was how much extra it would be

Probally better to just buy a Glanza

adrian flux was a joke for me on a import gt4 celica , dearest around.

All the "cheap" places will run away screaming if you mention engine swaps or turbo conversions. You'd be best off selling up and buying a Glanza if you want to do this.

hehe, thats pritty much what norwich union said to me so i said 'bye bye' and canceled my policy.

Im with adrian flux now paying £1046 TPTF everything declaired (Engine, filter, exhaust) Im 20, 1yrs ncb etc etc.
