Forester Owners
I've got a Forester T/TB that I'm looking to insure.
Tesco gave me a great quote - £604 but they won't accept mods and I want to decat in the near future.
L&V have the T/TB on the model list but it only shows manual version so they won't quote on an automatic.
Any other suggestion?

Hiya
My cheapest quotes for an XT (unmodified) were around 530ish, however Adran Flux came in at 477 - so it may be worth giving them a try.
No idea what they are like for mods tho.

I've got a '99 S/tb (manual) which is insured thru' LV at a cost of £530 [but I'm pretty old and live in a low risk area ].
Based on my previous experience trying to get quotes from LV I'd recommend you try them again. You might need to be a bit devious - initially tell them its a manual, just to get a quote. Once you've got this, ask them for a quote reference no.
Then ring back with the ref no, and explain that the car you're actually buying is actually an auto and ask for confirmation that the original quote still stands. If the telesales guy/girl says that autos are not on the list and that they can't therefore quote, express surprise and try and sweet talk them into referring your case it to an underwriter (on the basis that it is an identical to the manual version - which they're quite happy to quote for - but with an auto box.
Hopefully, you'll find that the "organ grinder" will be rather more forthcoming. If not, at least you've tried
When I was seeking quotes for my Forester the other front runners were elephant, direct line and tesco.
Hope this proves to be of help.
