azz-bo Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 I'm having trouble gettin insured on my 100E, its got 3.0 V6, they say because of the engine size they won't insure a 19 year old in this car. I've even tried my old man insuring it and me be a named driver. Any help or recommended insurers would be nice. Cheers
Trevmk3 Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 try looking in this room mate http://www.oldskoolford.co.uk/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=33 ring adrian flux mate they can usually do something as they dont mind insuring modified cars are you going to be using it all the time or is it a second car?
azz-bo Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Posted April 2, 2008 It'll be more of a weekend, fun car. I can't afford that much fuel
LEONMEX Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 im with adrian flux with the escort & 105e & they are very helpful & honest,not like some insurance crooks
Trevmk3 Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 It'll be more of a weekend, fun car. I can't afford that much fuel you shouldnt have a problem with Adrian Flux then mate. i have just insured my cortina as a second car with them. ask if you can have agreed value, and limited mileage (that should bring the cost down too)
glenbo Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 have you had a look in the back pages of classic ford?
azz-bo Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Posted April 2, 2008 wikid, nice one for your help lads I'll give 'em a call tomorrow
Messenjah Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 if it is honestly just a weekend car try the norwhich union pay as you drive policy
Admin Vista Posted April 2, 2008 Admin Report Posted April 2, 2008 You're 19 and you want to insure a modified classic Ford with a 3 litre engine? I wish you every success but suspect you'll come unstuck wherever you try for a quote.
escortmad79 Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 When you do get a quote expect a 4 figure number!
Savvi Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 Stick the side valve back in until your 25 !!!

bronze4door Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 i paid ver £750 on a "standard" mk1 escort 1100 last year on a limeted milege policy of 3000 miles so good luck
jamesg Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 try PERFORMANCE DIRECT, never let me down. im paying less this year for 24v cossy lump then i did last year for a 2.8 v6
azz-bo Posted April 3, 2008 Author Report Posted April 3, 2008 Wheres the fun in a side valve? Haven't really had time to do any quoting today. I'm sure somebody will insure me if my dads the main driver and just a named driver. I can drive it already on the policy that I've got my everyday car, it allows me to drive any other vehicle not belonging to me, and as my dads name is on the log book I'm legit but only third party . I have faith I will get insurance for this car
bomber1 Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 try PERFORMANCE DIRECT, never let me down. im paying less this year for 24v cossy lump then i did last year for a 2.8 v6 wait till u try claiming with themm they fook u right over
azz-bo Posted April 3, 2008 Author Report Posted April 3, 2008 Just rang Adrian flux. They wont insure me as a named driver. So its going in my name (so I'll be the MAIN driver) and having my dad as named driver. Told them about the mods and they quoted me £522.37. Get in there!!!! Still shopping around though.
ChristophStone Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 have you go NCD ? Might try them when I turn 19. That quote is amazing.

Still shopping around though. £520!! fook me thats cheap! I've been quoted nearly £5000 for a mk2 1300 escy before now
azz-bo Posted April 3, 2008 Author Report Posted April 3, 2008 Whats NCD? And I think £520 is gonna be the cheapest i get, I'm well happy with that anyway. Does your profession help bring insurance down?
Savvi Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 That's a bargain mate hope it's the same price when you try to insure it. My apprentice got a really cheap quote cancelled his old insurance rang back to the other's and was quoted a £1000 more than the original quotation !!!! Hopefully with the forum deal with Adrian Flux you should be ok !!!
Trevmk3 Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Whats NCD? And I think £520 is gonna be the cheapest i get, I'm well happy with that anyway. Does your profession help bring insurance down? NCD- No Claims Discount some professions do bring your insurance down yeah. told you that you would get something

NCD- No Claims Discount some professions do bring your insurance down yeah. told you that you would get something Oh yeah, Nah don't think I've got NCD, had a minor bump into a RSPCA van last year (no animals were harmed). But i do drive for the royal mail group so maybe that helped me out. Also had the quote confirmation come through yesterday and it hasn't changed one bit
