As Jay says. They're the only company I could find that would insure my modified pick up.

Hagerty. Great service, great prices.

Paul at need to insure is a lovely fella to deal with and prices are very competitive. My only concern was the insurer was equity red star and they are cheap for a reason, so didn't want to risk it with a high value 500. Hagerty stand by their agreed valuation and are a huge US classic car insurer, and they are now also an RSOC approved insurer

i only just noticed its classic policy. i used flux for my last classic policy very well priced but not allowed to be tuned so can only run stock power 9 psi.

does need2insure offer classic policys for slightly modified cars ? im just talking stage 1 stock engine, wheels and exhaust.

Yep.
My truck has a v8 conversion, Hydraullics etc etc and they sorted me out with a limited mileage agreed value policy for less than £300.

Peter D James are really competitive.

Last two years its only cost me £270 fully comp on my saph all mods declared with unlimited mileage and full recovery etc.
Only thing they stipulate is you need an rsoc valuation to get and agreed value which tbh will be the same for a lot of places!!

Only downside is they don't take instalments but was half the price of the next cheapest quote!!
Will shop around again this year though just to see
