VR6Pete 0 Posted June 6, 2012 yup, brentacre.... I had a VR6 in my mk2 golf ans had an "upto 220BHP" policy, any mod that took me to 220BHP basically was covered! also was able to "mirror" my NCB from my daily driver to bring down the price of the policy too.

Grim1 1 Posted June 13, 2012 I now use Classic Line. Beat every other quote (and by quite a bit) for my Rado. Was recommended by my mate who uses them. Used them on his previous 2 Porsches and now on his new Lotus Elsie and his Mini Worx. The phone operators are really friendly too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 14, 2012 (edited) Another vote for Brentacre with engine conversions. If you do stick a new (bigger) engine into your Corrados, remember the new rules:- http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/OwningAVehicle/ChangesToYourRegistrationCertificate/DG_4022054 What it essentially means is, you need to send some documented evidence of the engine change along with the updated V5. If you installed the motor yourself, it can literally just be a piece of headed paper from a garage saying "Supply 1 x Audi 3.2 V6 engine for customer fitment. Engine number - XXXXXXXX. £1500". If you don't do this, you can bet your bottom dollar the insurance will be null and void if you crash it. Edited June 14, 2012 by Kevin Bacon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VAG-hag 0 Posted June 14, 2012 i got the best deal from performance direct they gave me the same cover for the least money they wont even give me a price for my 'rado!! its only a VR with SP cams, coils etc! made me laugh that they are called performance direct & wont touch a 90s coupe with a few tweeks....
