Hi Everyone
i have just joined today having agreed to buy a 2003 2.7 Boxster and am looking forward to finalising everything tomorrow
My broker got me a reasonable quote but when I phoned to finalise he had been under the erroneous assumption that I had been trading in my Jaguar X-Type Estate in p/ex instead of my simply selling for cash hopefully in the near future. The Jaguar has 9 years ncb and there seems to be a problem in having this applied to the Porsche which of course would significantly affect the cost of insuring the Porsche I tried to get quote both online with Locton and by telephoning Carole Nash but haven't yet been able to get a figure. I can see my broker tomorrow before complete but am not sure how this might pan out. If anyone has past experience of how best to sort this out and can let me know I would be most grateful
Thanks

Hi Ian,

Strangely this has come up in the 968 forum, but hopefully you will get some replies.

I'd pick up the phone to Locktons, and also try other specialists. From what I understand you have a car with full NCB, and now a second car you want to apply that to? I've not had an issue with Classicline over this. Your NCB is exactly that: a no claims bonus that means you've not claimed, so you get a bonus on any policy. I get full no claims on my van's commercial policy, my Porsche's classic policy, and as a named driver on the boss's car.

Where you might find an issue is if, on selling the Jag, you use the Porsche as a main car. Most classic insurers require it to be a second car, with proof of your main vehicle.
 
Thanks very much Paul
Silly me -I didn't scroll far enough down the page
I will try Lockton again tomorrow although I was slightly concerned when they mentioned they would need to refer to an underwriter and did I have any experience of driving a modern vehicle with this sort of performance

Very unusual to get NCB on a classic policy with restricted mileage

you can only only apply your NCB to one car

have tried the normal online services for a quote
 
Thanks for your thoughts
Once spoke to Dave at Lockton all resolved very easily!
Terrific service and great value
Regards
Ian
