INSURANCE-HOW MUCH ARE YOU PAYING

Post by Old-Bugga »

Seems quite a useful question to see whos paying what. May save us all trudging round the same group of companies.

Obviously were all driving 356 Replicas

Premium-
Company-
Tel-
Drivers Age-
Agreed Value-
Limited Mileage-
Engine Size-
Garaged-


Please add anything else you think may be pertinent.

I pay £295 with carol nash 4000 miles a year
European break down cover
Garaged and immobilizer fitted for my 911 2.2

I have had a cheaper quote with star for £250 which i'm going to change to when the insurance runs out. :) :)

Dirt cheap if you ask me!

speedster replica insurance

Ive just had a quote for £295 fully comp, which for an old git like me who only wants to drive on dry weekends is a bit extreme (me thinks).

I paid much less than that for my 911, but the company I was with dont do kits !

going to shop arround.

Does seem expensive to me!

How many covictions? off roading and using it as a taxi must be cheaper

Try Adrian Flux

They're a pain in the a** but cheaper

From posts elsewhere it would seem C N are not interested in insuring anything very much at all .
You are doing well to even get a reply ! :lol:

Yeah Carole Nash clearly didn't want my Turbo insurance this year - they quoted £865 at renewal so I went to A Manning for £511 inc PCGB track day cover - 5,000 mile basis.

The 2.4T is with R H Specialist Car Insurance for the princely sum of £157 - 5,000 mile basis.

FWIW my everyday Merc C250TD Est is with Privilege on a 25,000 mile policy for £395 - I think that's good value.

Not sure about replicas though.
2006 RHD 997 Carrera (but DDK remains in my heart - also now no longer)
1972 LHD 2.4T with '73 2.4T CIS motor - gone to a new DDK home
1994 RHD 993 Carrera - gone!
1968 LHD 911L - was the Wife's but now in new hands :-(

After much shopping arround, and some insurers not even having the decency to get back to me ! The best quote I have had is from HIC this comes in at £240 fully comp with 5000 restricted milleage.

Tell me about it! I am waiting for about 3 or 4 replies. Don't even bother asking anyone to reply by email - it is as though they do not know what it is!
Incidently if you want to insure something that does not include the word 'Porsche' in its description, B Portwood & co have an insurance menu in which you can calculate your own premium - seem pretty reasonable as well!
