imo so called performace insurers are just the same as any other company out there...
have had so many "performance" cars over the years and not one has been insured with "hyperformance supercar insure you with 12 points and a DR10 flux"
stick to tesco, asda and elephant...

I've never had trouble getting a quote, and my postcode is apparently listed as F* (refer), ie. a warzone, according to an old list I had lying around a while back...
Then again, my car is only group-10.

greenlight wanted £1200 for my car
i paid £630 to adrian flux after ringing round
i doubt very much that the likes of tesco elephant etc would touch a car thats modified to almost double its standard horsepower let alone offer an agreed valuation. i may be wrong, i never checked this year because past experience tells me such companies dont like modified cars

Well Greenlight insured by Escort for a year or 2 a while back. Was happy with the service. But wouldn't cover an M3. Reason quoted was "Lots of them were stolen in the 90's" So I asked about a Sapphire, and was told "Oh that's no problem"
They weren't alone in that, M3's are a nightmare to get insurance for.

Im with Bell Direct and Im actually VERY happy, knocked £400 off come renewal time. (Bit of a suspect area I live in) And sent me all the forms up front. Unlike lots of other companies that you have to chase for 6 months to actually send you the paperwork that you've paid for.
