g60greeny 0 Posted September 5, 2005 just been ringing around for quotes started with norwich union direct as they were my existing insurer and the cheapest last year,now they quoted me £100 more than my previous years insurance :roll: anyway after a very long and difficult discussion its down to my postcode?so i decided to give brentacre a bell,how pleasing it was to talk to someone i didn't have to say "could you repeat that please" several times.anyway got by best quote upto now and probably take it.its £550 f/c protected n/c and allows any mods and upto 215bhp at the flywheel,is that ok?just need to get a catII imobiliser fitted as the alarm/imobiliser i've got didn't come up on there screen(scorpian739?)

g60griff 0 Posted September 5, 2005 i wish someone would quote me £700 fully comp. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g60greeny 0 Posted September 5, 2005 also knew they'd be ok when they asked if i'd done the chip and pulley,all other companys worried at the mere mention of a change of my alloys never mind s4 chargers chips and pulleys,if someone could read my sign for the few mods i've done a give me a rough guess at what the bhp at the flywheel would be?and what i could do to achieve 215bhp at the flywheel,cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
