I have had a call from Keyring Cars to say that my new car will be delivered next week sometime....it's been a long wait!

What I'm having trouble with is a decent insurance quote:

Several insurers are having a problem with the car being importing from Europe. When I stress that it is a UK specification car and is a parallel import rather than one from Japan they simply don't seem to grasp it.

Tesco were good with a quote of £672 but insisted that it have a tracker fitted, which is something that I don't particularly want to spend £600 on!

Can you offer any help.

Since it's a UK specification car with a certificate of conformity , is it actually necessary to declare that it was purchased in Belgium?

Thanks for any help,

Mike

Try Liverpool Victoria - not bothered by Euro imports, security and allow you to modify a lot for very little. Very helpful. My premium this year has halved compared with Direct Line.

Axa didn't mind my Holland Import, and didn't give a stuff about Tracker either - if that helps
