Spoke to my insurance company earlier to inform them I'm going to Europe, when they asked the destination I told them as I have trackday cover I thought it would be no problem but was told it is UK only and I'm not covered at the ring ! FFS Anyone know any companies I can try all help much appreciated.

just take care, it is a very grey area the ring with regards to insurance as it is a public road so you should be covered, BUT some policys have a clause stating your not insured on a derestricted toll road which is what the ring is..

Can we get back on topic with this and talk about where he might be able to get insurance for the ring as its less than 48 hours till he intends to be driving there?

Does anyone know of a company who will do short term cover for the ring?

Or anyone know of anyone who does cover that has a 14 day cooling off period perhaps?

Graham is properly fucked at the moment and not sure what the options are????

All UK insurers have to offer a 14 day 'cooling off' period under FSA rulings.

Try to avoid a specialist insurer or broker as they are getting wise to the Ring and will have Specific Exclusions for Ring use.

The big boys dont Specifically exclude (no doubt they will wriggle if you do bin it on the track- but this will be after the fact and will offer you the 3rd party cover that you need)

DO NOT ring up and ask about Ring cover as the underwriters will bin you over the phone quicker than you can say Nordschleife.

Go through the online policies (and read ALL the small print).

You could be smart and get a 'vaguely' worded policy, go to the Ring, drive at 85%, return safe and sound and cancel the cover subject to an admin charge (will be about Ł15-20ish)

Good luck!!!

never mention the word norschleiffe

Ginge !

im covered !!!

im with gsi southern, call em up and ask for phil or benn, they will tell you all the loop holes ( there class like that) honestly there the best
