Tyring to get prices under 500 for an Impreza wrx import is a bloody joke, it's the import that's killing it...I'm in my late 40s with max (9) nc's and a decent p/code, and it's making dam all diffirence. And yes I've tried KM's (520), AF more/less the same, and some through the like of Compare the market ect, Money supermarkey, are cheaper yes, then I phone to make sure, 9/10 they then wont insure it because it's an import...this is hellish

Orite mate try Adrian flux, im with them cost me around 1000 but then I am nearly half your age also I got a hawk type 20 for that price with less ncb than you and 3 points. Give them a try might work out good for you !! also all mods declared.

CREWJ

As said, did you talk to Moley at KM? He's the only person to talk to.

I dont think 520 is over the top for a high grouped car

CREWJ

I'd love to be paying under £500 and I've had mine 6 years

Sounds like a post code issue.

Turbotits

Yep had mine. 9 years and a classic for 2 years before that and mines over 500

500 ish seems about right. I pay well in excess of that, all mods declared, fully comp with max no claims, garaged etc. I am with Sky, and I always ring round the companies to get them bidding for my business. Sky always price match and they are easy to get hold of too.

Between £500-£700 is reasonable I think for a high group car

try greenlight insurance I was with andrian flux but they wanted another 200 pounds more on renewal plus greenlight don't charge for some modifications

I'm 23 and my uk classic is £500 a year but I have a 'w' uk2000. Know it's not the same issue as its a uk car but you can have it to a similar spec for not much investment. I would go for the 520, what's 20 these days

+1 for greenlight
Friendly people great service, competitive
Still think u will struggle to get below 500 with an import of that insurance bracket tho

stu9

Got it......Now, if I get the car I'm going for, they'll be a fmic kit for sale as i'm puting an original set up back on

Try greenlight, just got my renewal after one years ownership on a type r quoted at 500

I think the issue is the import part as at 28 I just renewed my '03 WRX for £280 F/C. From memory when I was looking a few years back Tesco were pretty good for imports, as were Elephant. After ten years I've ironically just moved away from Elephant as they just weren't able to compete but they're usually pretty favourable with imports/mods etc, and your added age may well help you compared to what they could do with me.

try aviva direct £380 fully comp 47 all mods declared safe postcode with max no claims

stu9

I tried them for temp cover just for the hell of it and wouldn't take it so thought no point in doing it for real....like I say, I've got one now......it's weird though why an import really hikes the prices up when it's the same bloody car.....just shows we're getting ripped off AGAIN!!

Swedge

Imports have more power

stu9

Can't be that much more that the price dam near doubles in some cases

What's been done, is it bigger/different turbos and/or exhausts or something else

XDevil666

Same with anything in the UK, if they see anyway to screw us they will
