well that's what they've just told me anyway.

Perhaps we can amend their advert in the sticky to reflect this please.

That's funny because they insure mine BUT you have to phone them up not go into a branch on the street.

You have to ring the Thatcham branch. Only they deal with imports and modified. The one's on the high street are no good.

I just filled out their request for on the internet & they phoned me back. Are they too incompetent to pass these requests through to the right department, is that what we're saying here...?

I'm with Admiral currently and perfectly happy. They told me last night they can only do imports if there is an identical UK equivalent vehicle. Obviously for the Forester STI there isn't.

They may not be cheapest for you, but may be for others. The quote depends on a whole load of factors.

Goes without saying to look around though.

No probs with A plan, I have my RA with them and it costs approx 480 quid with all mods and 3 points. And I have my VW golf and Polo covered with them as well. Ringing the correct number always helps.

Amazin' - it's like a different world when you get hold of the right department. Got a good quote too.

They might even get my business if they're not careful.

My Type R and the wifes STi Wagon are covered with A-Plan. Always been competitive at renewal. The basingstoke branch dealt with thatcham when sorting out the original cover on the Type R as I also insure my mx-5 with them. I doubt many places could have sorted that out as efficiently.
