Let me know how you get on as my renewal is due soon. Im currently insured with Norwich Union.

Last year when I rang around most wouldnt touch an import and you would have thought I insulted their mothers by the resonse I got when I said Type R!

Lats time I spoke to Keith Michaels they were only issuing Type R insurance to existing policy holders, not new. May have changed though.

I'm just starting my 2nd year with A Plan. Price is pretty reasonable, but as ever it depends on the history & location of the policyholder...

Would it count if you had a modded UK classic and then bought a Type R.
