Question FMIC/INSURANCE

hi
i am wanting a front mount intercooler on my scoob and was wondering how this would affect my insurance.
im 29, 3 years ncd.
can anybody who has fitted a fmic tell me how hard/easy it was to find a insurance company to insure you and how much extra it cost?.


thanks in advance for any info.

Liverpool & Victoria is very 'mod-friendly'. As long as you don't change the cylinder capacity, you can change pretty much anything else without incurring a higher premium.

Well I am 29 and have a fmic, try Greenlight they will insure it no probs.

When I tried to get a quote from Liv & Vic they told me that they dont insure modified cars and wouldnt touch my car.

I moved from Greenlight to L&V just before Christmas because they more than doubled my premium (no claims, no incidents whatsoever).

I'm under 30 and L&V had no problems taking my car on, despite all the mods (fully declared).
