B10 V8S - finding insurance cover & loosing the will to.

[Simonal]

Adrian Flux do quote for the V8s and get the right CC too

I spoke with them yesterday and they had no V8S on the system They also confirmed this with their underwriters!?

Hi that is worrying because I am with them for my V8S and they have all the correct details down including engine size so I am not sure why you cannot get a quote from them!

They were the cheapest when I rung around last year and of course I will do a comparison this year when I come to renew.

Hope that helps PM me if you need more details.

Cheers

Simon

Nice one Simon - I just called again and spoke with Amie and have finally got a decent quote on the correct vehicle specification!

Best so far as well!

Excellent glad I could help sometimes it is who you speak to at the brokers which gets you the right quote for the car.

I have Admiral multi car policy for my B10V8s plus Toyota Yaris, current annual price £530 Comprehensive from December 2009, both garaged here in Surrey, low mileage. When I bought the V8s in June 2006 I had the V8 4.6litre insured thru Admiral. Admiral did not know about the V8s variant, hardly surprising since there are so few in UK. Pointed them to Alpina Register and Alpina germany websites, once I had convinced them it was not a Japanese import and then a day later they added V8s to their list and gave me insurance so I could buy the V8s. Happy days. No problems ever since, price static, will happily keep paying to avoid having to search for a new informed insurer

Nice one Richard, your past efforts have certainly helped me out!

Please feel free to apply to the other insurance companies to get the V8S listed...

Try Cheam Insurance on 020 8652 7733. I've been with them for a couple of years now. Not a big outfit but ask for Justin Blandford he knows his stuff!

Hi Trevor - it took a while to get a quote and they were sadly uncompetitive at this time. However I updated the list to include them for future reference.

As a final update until next year, Chris Knott got my business, however the documents listed the car as a B10 V8 (4619 cc)

Amendments made in pen and documents sent back, let’s see what comes back...
