adam1942 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Last year My insurance was pretty much bang on £1000 for the 350z. I'd been looking around recently as my insurance is due on the 5th of May and I was slowly getting depressed as the price online was showing around £1050-£1100 for the cheapest quotes.. So I'd been looking at selling the car.. Until this morning.. Admiral have came back with a renewal of... £711.. Which means I am keeping the 350z for another year at least woohoo p.s. I know Admiral can be hard to claim off etc but at the end of the day I don't care as long as I can legally! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't have any issues claiming back then. They are a good company imo. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

14N Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 A lot of forum members are getting good results from Admiral ATM. I'm insured with them too and I'm almost looking forward to see what my renewal quote is in a couple of months. Almost.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stubzie83 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 How are they with mods? I put my intake and exhaust on and paid the admin fee (£20ish) last year to update the policy. Hasn't made my renewal go up this year do happy to stay with them as they're still cheap compared to others Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
14N Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I recently added/declared an exhaust, front splitter and aftermarket wheels and it cost £19. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam1942 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) That price is including my mods declared, lowered, pop charger, exhaust and wheels. sky; you guys wont insure me as I'm in Northern Ireland. This is why our insurance tends to be dearer. A lot of companies wont touch us! Edited April 11, 2013 by adam1942 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diab2005 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 You can declare your mods or pay a slightly higher fee to insure them. When you get your renewal make sure you try a NEW MEMBER quote...it WILL be cheaper...then call them, tell them about your mods and theyll match (Or in my case beat) the price quoted for the new member Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainSensible Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 How are they with mods? Thye were hopeless when I tried to declare my mods. They seemed to stuggle with the plenum spacer mainly, I explained what it was but when they referred it to their underwirter they said they could no longer insure me. Eventually after much complaining I got them to add it on ot my policy for a hefty premium. That's why I'm now with Sky. I think they are OK for mainstream stuff (wheels, exhausts etc) but anything slightly out of the ordinary seems to bamboozle them. I would add that it doesn;t help that their customer services team are based in India. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richmillions Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I've rung them about three times in the last few months to see how much different mods would be and I have been getting people in a Welsh call center each time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I've always got Engish or American call centers with Admiral. £9 is cost me for the wheels and exhaust As for the spacer, just declare is as an upgraded intake, as that is in effect, what it is.

Diab2005 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Yea its definately a part wales/asian based call centre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ph 7 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Mine is up 20th May so I did a run through the comparison sites for a rough idea and got AXA in at 396 and Admiral at 415. That is for a 32 yr old plus wife. 11yr protected ncb, 7k per year. Currently with Elephant and that cost me 584 last year. Will be contacting Sky though as I get closer to see what they can do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam1942 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 I suppose I should add.. that price is for 10k miles a year with 2k business cover for myself. All mods declared. 4 years NCB and a crash in 2009. Overall I'm very happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyinsurance Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 sky; you guys wont insure me as I'm in Northern Ireland. This is why our insurance tends to be dearer. A lot of companies wont touch us! Hi Adam, thanks for the clarification. I find it incredibly frustrating that we only cover the UK Mainland. I'm a frequent visitor (family in Bangor) and see the volume of modified and imports buzzing around, there is a strong market for sure.
