welshbuddy Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 hey guys, well iv been blabbling on about going NA-T for ages!, and hopefully it will be happening soon excited much!? well i just been looking on confused , put in all the details, put turbocharging as one of the modifications that had been altered to the car, guess what, no-one would insure me!, I don't really want to phone and ask how much admiral would charge extra for me having a turbo, it was only £60 more for my body kit + alloys+ exhaust, im thinking. If i phone up and then talk about it but then go along and get it " turbofied" and crash , first thing they will check is that! How have you guys that have modified engine parts and so on dealed with altering insurance, cheers, daz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob_sri Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Not the conversation to have with your insurer..! Will definitely be giving sky a ring.. The fact they have a rep on the forums actively answering questions is a tick in the box in my book! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think having an forum presence works to our favour and to our detriment, but on a whole I think most members see it is a positive. Some still think we are here to catch them out though!

Ollie To be honest, Another reason I use Sky IS because of your forum presence. Nice to know there is a insurance company out there that is familiar with modified cars and doesn't think we're a scourge on society.
