jesterwalker69 0 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 I also use Adrian Flux and i had the same Dan. It was actually cheaper if the car was modified with like for like replacement on each part.All mods declared is £900 for me and that's with 2yrs NCB and 3 points parked in a car park. Oh and i was 24 when i took it out. Link to post Share on other sites

Bryanhickman7777 0 Posted April 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 It must have something to do with engine size lol cos i presume the vr6 has around 100 hp less.What a weird world these insurance companys live in. Still im a veedubber at heart, and wouldnt settle for anything else. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 I insured my mk2 VR6 at the age of 23 / 24 with Brenacre, which was 220BHP for around 900 quid... shop around PHONE up dont bother with online quotes Link to post Share on other sites
VeedubVR 0 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Just ring them up m8. Ive had my own insurance sice i was 17. Im with HIC 3 years no claims and im 21. I pay £650 for the year which isnt to bad. Just ring up and play them off against each other.That is seriously cheap! Fully comp or TPFT? My insurers must be taking me for a ride.Im paying £1700 on the mk3 VR, but I have just gone 20. Thats with brentacre with everything covered. Brentacre also dont charge for adding mods, unles its a mod that will increase the power and take it over the power band they put you in. Link to post Share on other sites
