Vicky Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 i think a headed letter would be ok, my insurance company accepted that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I just went to an alarm fitment/specialist, they tested it and wrote me a cert out stating the alarm, type e.g. thatcham and that it was good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topgun Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Yep,went to a local car alarm company they checked it and wrote a cert, can be pricey though about £45. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si.Supra Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 Fingers crossed will have to call them in the morn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 You can still insure the car mate, just say youre having difficulty locating the docs (new owner or other such bunkum) Theyll give you a period of grace to locate it. Sorted. And fyi, I had a similar scenario with my last insurer, lost the alarm cert. And the difference in thr premium without an alarm was..... 17 quid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicky Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Fingers crossed will have to call them in the morn. you should get 14 days to provide security proof at least, what insurance company are you with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
