Question Where do Spec C drivers go re insurance?

I'm guessing A Plan ... are there any other good ones? Not posting under insurance forum due to it's poor viewing figures

Mine's with Keith Michaels; £700 fully comp inc. European cover - handy for the Ring - and all the usual extras. The car is an MY05 Spec C WR Limited with the full Miltek exhaust system (347/330). Gary Moulson knows his scoobys so you don't have to spend hours trying to explain what a Spec C is, or why the exhaust isn't standard, to some call centre worker in Mumbai (almost worth paying extra for!) and they do a £25 discount if you're a member of SIDC - almost worth joining SIDC for.

The best bit for me though is they do a very good trackday cover for £50-60 which covers the total value of the vehicle albeit with a £1500 excess. For comparison, I was quoted £300 by a specialist trackday insurers with an excess of £3000

Are A-Plan doing that now then as they could not offer it to me in September? If so I will try them at renewal time. (Gary, better get a pencil sharpener for the Sept mate

funny, I had that to when I asked for my NCB bonus as I was leaving them . IMHO they should have done that from renewal not as an after thought.

From what i understand it depends who you speak to as to what you are told.

The last thing official i heard is that Markerstudy do not offer like-for-like on mods, and i haven't been told anything different.
