RPL Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Does anyone know, I'm looking to buy a 350Z GT UK spec sometime the next couple of months and the best quotes i'm getting are from Bell/Admiral/Elephant (and for me, a 27yr old with 5yrs NCD in Hampshire its about 750pa). Elephant seems the most "established" one of the three, with a modifications policy which seems to cover "optional extras" such as the factory fit NISMO spoilers. Has anyone used them before? Any ideas what the situation with them is in the event of a claim, i.e. do they replace the car to standard spec + factory extras? Or is it just to base spec?

rtbiscuit Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 quite a few of us use admiral, and elephant is a sister company of admiral Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 have you tried the site recommended insurers they do a club discount for members on here. sky chris knott and someone else check the insurance section on the forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanski Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Have you tried swiftcover and Chris knott - I am paying about £200 less than you and my postcode is'nt insurance friendly! Unless its agreed value you will only get market rate at time of claim - worse case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPL Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 Cheers guys, The £750 quote was from Sky Insurance who i'd seen on here, and also been recommended from a friend. Seemed a bit pricey (+£100) compared to Elephant so wondered if the difference in price was justifyable. I'll give Chris Knott and Swiftcover a try... Can i take it that you're pleased with Admiral's cover? They came out about £10 cheaper than elephant. Whats the deal with them and factory options? (like the 19" extras which i rarely see...) are they "covered" and would be replaced if necessary? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the main drawback of bell/elephant/admiral. I need to get away from bell this year to get my mods covered on a like for like basis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 The quite from sky will cover like for like replacements on aftermarket parts. If you take that into account, its a large potential saving "if" you have an accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
