Privilege Insurance
I have just been online to obtain a quote with Privilege insurance after trying my existing insurance company. Originally my existing insurance company quoted me 740 online but when I spoke to them direct they quoted me 1030 as the car is an import. I have just been online with Privilege and they have quoted me 606. I haven't spoke to them on phone as the lines are now closed but I am just wondering if anyone on here has bought there insurance online with Privilege without ringing and checking if this covered an import. I get the impression there could be alot of Subaru drivers driving around with what they think is a valid insurance which might not be all it seems until they come to claim. Has anyone had any experiences of this?
Surely if the car is a UK spec import then there should be no difference as all cars are imported as they are not manufactured in this country. I can understand if it is a Japan import or a grey import.
I am well confused.
Please help. I am about to buy the car but this is now putting me off as I can't sort my insurance out.

I'm with them mate. Mines a UK model and they quoted £530.00. Put the reg plate in and it confirmed vehicle details on line. Did ring them to check just in case but quote remained the same.

I had insurance with Privilege and mine was an import, I did clarify that it was an import and the person I spoke to over the phone knew exactly what I was talking about which was good.
