It's that time of year to re-insure the 964 and it's usually a bit of headache with it being a road legal race car. This year it was more so but at least the story does have a happy ending!
I've been insured with Adrian Flux with a US import policy (as I bought the car from the States they suggested this) with a value of £17k and they wanted £345, just £5 more than last year. However when I upped the value to £25k the revised price was £480 plus I had to have an immobiliser fitted. This was too much for a car I use a few times a year. []
Anyway, after much phoning around and being told by Lancaster and various others they can't quote, I started thinking I just wouldn't bother and just take the car off the road.
Anyway, I didn't give up and I'm glad to say I've sorted out a policy with Competition Car Insurance. 3000 miles, £25k valuation and doesn't have to be garaged, with 5 track days included too, £250 excess and all for £296! Fantastic. [][]
I might as well make use of the track day cover so does anyone fancy a trip to Spa ??
