Now that I'm able to pay for a PPP upgrade I thought it best to check what extra insurance costs I'm in for, only to be told that Churchill don't permit modificatios of any description.
Unless I was talking to a completely incompetent telesales girl, it looks as though I'm snookered.
Is there any Churchill policy holder out there who's managed to beat their system?

Tell Churchill where to stick their policy and go with Liverpool Victoria, probably save you some cash too.

How come Liv-Vic state categorically on their website that they wont cover modded cars? I'm confused as I've heard loads of people talking about using them....

Liverpool Victoria "don't ask the question" like other companies do. Not sure about other cars, but they're defo Scoob/mod friendly and didn't charge me a penny extra for mine. Gotta be over 30 though.

Churchill don't allow mods you're right.

Hmmm, you have to be over 30; if you have PPP you should be alright (?)

Thanks for these replies, although I'm no better off since Liv-Vic are also telling me that modifications are out of the question, and I made it clear that I'm over thirty.

Did you tell them its a dealer-fitted "extra" as opposed to a mod in the simplest sense ? Did you also point out that there are many people on this BBS with declared mods legitimately insured with LV ? Did you tell them you found out about them on Scoobynet ? If what you say is correct, then they must have changed their policy - although it must have been in the last week because I insured with them two weeks ago with PPP fully declared no problem.

Are you sure you've got the right Liverpool Victoria ?

Read this recent thread: "Just love L&V"

I just managed to catch Liverpool Victoria before their 4pm close, and spoke to a really well-informed bloke who's done me a nice quote to include PPP. He knew all about Scoobynet too!
