Hi ALL
Aswell as being scooby mad im also a branch manager for a insurance company.Im wondering if there would be much call for a scheme i can offer though my work where for any policy sold 25 pounds will be donated to a club (im thinking Scobynet this could go torwards track days etc)
Firstly; is anyone into this ?
Secondly; who do I need to speak to at scobynet re this ?
Thirdly; The place i work for will only cover uk cars and to be honest are only compettive on standard models so this could well be a problem.

Im just testing the water at the moment but depending on intreast would be prepared to go to our underwriters to get a discounted rate if i can provide a decent response.

Depends what SO30 relates to. Is that Southampton itself or surrounding areas. If its the latter the STi prices are high, or at the least could be bettered by other coys.

Older uk prices look good though.

Is a minimum age of 25 required? I'm 24 ATM (Although by renewal I hope to have the IAM advanced test passed and with a bit of luck 4 yrs NCB)
