Question

It looks like I am going to use NFU this year, as I was impressed with the manner that they handled my quote, answered the questions that I posed, and previous thumbs up on this BB.

As those of you who know me know, Ive a plain std MY99, but been panning to mod ever since day 1, a wedding put pay to those plans, but my finances are nearly healthy again now, so roll on those mods!

When I spoke to NFU yesterday, I was told that if you basicish mods, these will mean they will rate your car as an RB5 (group 18), but if you go serious they will class as a P1, and give you group 20P (it was 20P i think). If you go bonkers with mods, they will class as 20S, and they cannot insure this!

So my question (finally ) is who has done what with NFU, and what difference has it made to premium?

cheers guys

Done - "GpA" Brembos & Eibachs (+ geometry)

Doing - LedaB & Strut Brace

Total effect on premium - <B>£0.00</B>

just need them to cover track days and I'm even happier!

Added Scoobysport BB, brake support bracket + Prodrive discs for £0 premium extra

You <B>DON'T</B> want them to cover Track Days.

2 Reasons

1) Stack your car & damage your insurance history/NCB

2) Lots of Scoob owners on Track Days & a few crashes & premiums <B>UP</B> for <I>ALL</I> Scoob owners regardless

Go with Eggar Lawson

but Puff, Eggar is running at around £70 a track day, do 4/5 a year and it soon mounts up.

Eggar should do a Scoob owner year long policy for a reasonable rate!

But Greg

Ask anyone who was with Admiral what their recent renewal was (& they did cover Track Days) & I bet it was more than Eggars for a couple of Track Days

I would prefer low general premiums & pay a bit for "that extra something" with Eggar Lawson & not potentially B up my NCD for the next few years.

IMHO

Cool

*LMAO*

Insure with me - I won't give you the option of track day cover !!! *L* It is EXCLUDED...

...although if you speak nicely I can arrange it.

I agree with PTMW - best thing is to get cover on a specialist scheme - thus not risking premium increases at renewal - or more to the point affecting your NCD.

A few months ago I started looking into the track day cover with a view to sorting a special Scooby Scheme.....*sigh*....but I got such a Cr@p response I dropped the idea...

C'est la vie, huh???

All the best.
