Lazarus Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 Faye I've just re-read this thread and an older thread about insurance. Your question has started to put doubts in my mind. This is my first year with elephant and was chuffed to monkey's with the quote, the certificate does state the car as an SZ, but your question on a deeper level suggests that perhaps they don't know what an SZ is. Do you, or does anybody know anthing about elephant that perhaps I missed? Now seriously worried that my car is not properly insured!!

When he looked at the certificate it just said Supra, he's had conversations with them since and they say its covered but personally if it doesn't say Supra SZ (Import) I'm not happy.

Lazarus Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 HMM!! Guess I'll be ringing them again then just to double check that they realise its an import, although I was sure they understood else why put SZ on the paperwork. Ta! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 Well elephant wanted significantly more money than that for my N/A SZ and I am also 32 with full ncb no points and all the good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazarus Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 I think thats because of where you live m8. Used to live in Littlemoor Ave, Bournemouth until 2 years ago. Found my insurance dropped alot when I moved to Wiltshire. Not much crime up ear wiv us country folk! The quote was originally £363.60 but because I then rang them up to confirm the cheap quote with all the correct details they suck another £40 on for not doing it online. Gits!!

As far as the location is concerned I live in Bournemouth in the second lowest to insure area type in the uk Not Mosside lol. My quote from Elephant was around £750 funny enough thats what tesco quoted us this year. Have a rough guess what they were charging me for the supe last year erroniously for 2 years as a Mk3?? yep you got it £450 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazarus Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 Ah! The plot thickens. You may have a point. Question is do let the insurance run to the next renewal and then bring up the subject (not too far away) or get on the phone tomorrow and stiff myself for another possible £350:blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 I finally got it through tesco's thick head I had a mk4 and had 2 months left to run on my policy and got charged an additional £75 I beleive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazarus Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 Feeling a bit gutted now. Thought I'd pulled a blinder with that quote, now it's beginning to look too good to be true. Should'a known.
