Just to update the firm quote zone got to call me regarding a quote never had the good manners to even phone back after tellin me he would, even if to say the car is too modded or we cannot cover it etc

thanks heritage

edited to add I have only just checked my emails, they have sent me a quote which looks very good I'm gonna have a read through the details now.

edited again to add again the qoute is very cheap, but I think I would need to speak to them regarding a few details

Hey Stu,

That's great that you got a good quote - it seems strange that you didn't get a call back though so we'll pass on the message. Perhaps a few teething problems at their end.

If there is anything else we can do to help, just let me know.

Best regards,

Jonny

Hi guys,

We do recognise that most of these cars aren't used everyday, it's pretty much a labour of love owning one. So If you're stuck, we can also cover classic cars (modified or standard).

There is criteria relating to limiting the mileage, along with the vehicle being a 2nd car. But the scheme is working well and has the right features so there's a good chance we'll be able to help.

Kind regards

Tony
