Who is everyone trusting for their Tribute insurance these days?

Why?
Are we thinking of a new purchase perchance?

Adrian Flux, £174 for 3k miles. Every year the renewal goes up by £40, give them a ring and say that I am not renewing unless they can match last years premium, every year they match it. In other words, they are trying to fleece you every year, a typical untrustworthy insurance company.

I believe it's the broker who tries it on, rather than the insurance company. I pay £123 for 5k miles in the A352, but then I'm a coffin dodger who's been with Flux since '86...

Regards, Mick

I use A Plan in Worcester, they have a specialist team who deal just with classics, kits and one offs etc etc. Price has always been good for me. They did an agreed value ( £60k ) policy for my ali Testarossa for under £300.

Thanks guys - hadn't heard of A Plan before - interesting.

I've been with Flux a lot in the past.

Steve - pondering mate, pondering!

I have been with A Plan Thatcham branch since I bought the Zed donor. They let me insure it as a Zed and then convert to Kobra when built with no extra charge to policy change.

I’ve not had to use them in anger so unsure how good they are in the end.

Can not recall how much policy is for a limited to 3k.

I have insurance with A-Plan and Graham Sykes.

A-Plan do seem to be pretty accommodating - I have agreed values on my GTO and F355, they have even given me "Lay up" insurance for my part built Dino at £80.

The "lay up" insurance is a good idea whilst building a kit, especially as most standard car policies won't cover a pile of parts.

Well I went with Footman James in the end.

Which leaves the obvious question, so here's the answer
