Valver Or Williams And Limited Mileage

[GeeUK]

Hello all

Picking my brain again, searching for ideas to satisfy my lust for speed.

Anyway, how much do you think a 21 year old, with 1 years no claims could insure a valver or williams for with limited milage?

Would use it only for track days and the odd drives etc?

Anyone insured one of them on limited mileage?

Cheers.

Give a company called Footman James a call. I insured my GTO with them on a limited milage policy. They were cheapest by miles. Cant remember their details but youll find them from a search on the web

My Williams is n ow Insured with Privilege. Im 26 and pay only £340! Give them a whirl too. Obviously everyones different so prices vary but worth a try

Good luck!

Cheers Matt. Just wondering if theres any insurers that cover limited milage especially or others that are really good for it.

Im on limited mileage. Pay £750tptf with all mods declared and 5000 miles a year. Thats with elephant, Although they havent actually asked what mileage the car is on so I can do as many as I like!

Age 20 w/ 2 years no claims btw, high risk area apparently.

Might give them a shot.

Gee, you tried Tesco, Direct Line or Churchill online yet? wouldnt have thought it would cost that much to just insure it normally fully comp. Failing that Id just put a 2.0 lump in yours, as it looks f**king stunning pal. One of the best modded cars I have seen, very subtle, like it!

If you kewep it purley for track days you wont need insurence, also have you tried adding it as a second car (if thats what you are doing), as a second car will often cost alot less then taking out a new policy

2nd car is rape m8, my valver is £900 fully comp as I cant have my 5 years NCD on both cars. To be fair they did give me 1 year on the valver, but its a joke when I already pay what I believe to be a low premium of £722 Fully comp and protected.

How would I get it to track days thou! I dont have a trailor etc.

I would take it to Clio meets too, mite be able to keep up then
I would take it for some boots round and about too.

Havent tried many yet. I did try Elephant and it came back with about £2000 or summat, on 4,000 miles, 3rd party only!

Oh, and the suggestion on dropping a 2.0 lump it..Id love to, but im sure i will get bum raped by insurance. 21, average postcode, 1 yrs no claims.

Gee, only one way to find out pal, phone Flux and Performance Direct for a quote pal. IMO the Williams is the best option, but then again ive always been a big fan of the car.

2.0 valver project maybe?

 

[GeeUK]

Ill try Flux, but they were over £1000 for my 1.2 ! Now its modded up to the eyeballs.

 

[TheJesus]

They have different departments I think m8, although I was never told this when I phoned them... u tried Tesco and Direct Line etc for the valver/willy quote, id see what they come out as too.

 

[GeeUK]

TESCO - £2238.60, TPTF, 4,000 miles, parked on street. tw*tS!

Cant use my no claims on another policy can I ?

Another one of my bloody sh*t ideas, I give up!

I was destined to be burnt out at the lights by Reliant Robins!

 

[TheJesus]

dont lose faith pal, ive been through ALL of this myself. lol

keep looking around, my first car was an XR2 and it cost me £800 TPFT at 19 after MUCHO looking around. Same with the Williams, got it for £900 in the first year of ownership and it drops over £100 a year now

 

[case]

im 19 with no no cliams and with elephant i can insure a standard willaims for about 1,700. So dont why they quoted you so high.

[GeeUK]

Coz they are c**k suckers?

Dunno, did you ring or do it online?

I thinkk my postcode must be wack.

 

[case]

my quote was on-line. Dont live in a great area myself so wouldnt have thought the difference would be that big.

Changes from place to place, person to person.

I paid less than your quotes last year (well, 10mo) on mine, and I was 20 with no NCD.. its much cheaper this year now 21 with 1NCD.
