For a standard Tubby, admiral were cheapest by far for me.

23/24, 5yrs ncb, parked on the steet, London (worst postcode area).

£870 FC.

does anyone still do DOC for under 21s?

im currently with bell but renewal is due next month and they wont give me DOC anymore because of my age

im 20 and will have 1 year NCB and 3 points, looking to insure a rev3 turbo for less than a grand with DOC

i had a rev2 turbo insured with 0NCB and i was 19 when i started that policy and i had DOC all for under £1K but cant find a similar deal

What's DOC? I've been with bell since I was about 19 and found that they couldn't be beaten, until last year sky insurance was cheaper, now I can get classic nothing even comes close. [thumleft]

DOC = Quinn Direct at any age.

DOC = Driving other cars.

Which insurance companies will do classic cover for a modified v6? [Angel]

sheppy · Posted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 2:53 pm Post subject:

Classicline, kris knott and performance direct, don't expect much from them though as they wanted about 800 or something off me:)

antnkel · Posted: Tue Feb 09, 2010 1:35 am Post subject:

I'd be happy with that as I have an ol postcode which isn't a good one according to insurance companies [Rolling Eyes]

I'm paying about £700 now for the v6 and have got a supercharger going on plus tried to knock a lamp post over last year [d'oh!]

So trying to see which will be my best option when I come to renew. [Angel]

Aplan was the best for me

£1169 Fully Comp with £300 total excess, 6000miles, all mods declaired and on a Like for Like bases

Im 22, 1 years no claims and 1 accident that was my fault

Great price considering its cheaper than all the TPFT quotes I have been getting!!

Oh and they offered to protect / insure my excess for £36 Which means I have to pay no excess if I have an accident, seemed silly not to take it realy [thumleft]

I was with Quinn Direct for about 3 years, and had my MR2 insured with them. They weren't quite the cheapest but all quotes include cover on other cars on a 3rd party basis, which is rare for young drivers (I was 20 at the time) and gave me a lot of flexibility when it came to borrowing family's cars. Several times I had to switch the insurance onto a borrowed car while mine was off the road and there was never any associated charge, the call centre is quick and efficient and open 7 days a week.

I'm now insured with Classicline on my Supra, 8k a year, all mods declared, ungaraged in a Slough postcode and cover for commuting - all for around £500. Not bad for a 23-year old with a Supra Turbo, although 6 years NCB helps [Smile]

Did they give a limit and a reason why?

cantfindausername · Posted: Wed Mar 03, 2010 11:46 am Post subject:

Nope, just said they don't insure that sort of power anymore. Didn't think to ask for a limit. I think my mod sheet scared them off. Maybe I'm being too thorough. [Think]

same here. Its sectioned and covers 2 sides of A4. As you say though, best to have it all known about. Would rather that and know I'll get it back (hopefully) should the worst happen.
