samurai Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 I just got an insurance quote from Adrian Flux and its gonna cost me £1965!! For a Mk1 Mex with 2.1 engine!
samurai Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Posted March 14, 2008 If i join a club and say i get 15% off it will still be £1665!
MightySprocket Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 huh jesus, my mk1 cost £98 to insure in 2006
antz Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 If i join a club and say i get 15% off it will still be £1665! osf is a club and you can get discount by mentioned our name
hotrodholty Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 i got a quote on mine last week, mk1 2 door 1100, engine changed to a 1600, uprated brakes and suspension, half roll cage, alarm, parked in liverpool. 3000 miles per year, fully comp agreed value of £3500. full price including curtesy car and break down cover for £460. did they ask you what the replacement engine was out of? if you tell them it came out of a cortina 2.0 L base model as opposed to a mk2 rs2000? i think this may make a difference as they base the replacment engine on what ever car it came out of.
caprinerd Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 mines £178 no noclaims full comp 2.1 capri 1986 wife as named driver £100 excess
samurai Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Posted March 14, 2008 Its the injection engine out of a sierra but when i was talking to the guy it didnt seem to make a difference what the engine was out of! Just that it had engine mods and backet seats and harnesses was abit of an aaaaa... I did say it had twin 45's to..
hotrodholty Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 and by the way mine is with no no-claims at all because iv had a company car, 3 points on my liscense which iv held for about 4 years. and being part of osf get me a discount

hotrodholty Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 istill dont understand how mine is so cheap (£1500 cheaper) when im 2 years younger than samurai and live in a place renowned by insurance companies to be full of car thieves (which it aint). i think i better ring up and get my insurance paid before they change thier mind
Supercharged Nat Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 do an online quote to see what it comes up with, look at a modified vehicle policy, thats what im on, 450 for mine with everything declared.
ann_capri Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 i was only quoted £411 on a provisional, 3rd party fire and theft,15% dicount,mk3 2.0l capri with adrian flux
over_head_cam Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 Nearly 2 grand sounds like a mistake mate. I'd get a second opinion
caprinerd Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 flux and that stupid dog were the most expensive for me
Guest MK1gaz Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 forget Flux they are dog poo . As long as you're over 25 and the cars kept in a garage you can get a fully comp classic car policy instead from Footman James etc etc etc and it will be £200 at the most
Tom Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 Or HIC mate mines only 300 quid with everything declared, agrees valuation etc. You need to add a named driver thats older than you a pref female, i put my missus on both my cars and it dropped it by £150 quid
