ade2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Just wondering why Insurance companies don't like inport cars? Unless things have changed about 7 years ago when i was buying an MR2 they would not touch an inport.. Does anyone know why?? Quote
stanski Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 They have cooled off a bot now no where near as bad when they realised that most of them are identical to the uk cars. Think there was a worry that cars had no provenance, welded up from 3 cars etc and so unique it would make them expensive to source parts etc but when they realised there is such a big Market and parts support things ae better now. There are specialist insurers that do this type of insurance and the ones on the forum do Jdms if that's your worry? Quote
Anubis Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Mine is a JDM. I pay roughly £100 extra for the honour through Bell. Quote
ade2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Author Posted November 7, 2009 No It was just something I wondered about.. The Zed I'm getting is a uk car. Quote
nixy Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 my insurance isn't really any more expensive but its harder to find, no idea why really - seems they don't do their research very well tbh, as in the case of the zed it makes no difference for parts etc. Quote
