I'm guessing one problem may be your residency. You said that you had a South African licence prior to you doing the swap for the UK. Some companies require a certain residency length eg 3-5 years, esp when you are looking at specialist scheme not just 'computer says' rates.

 

Can see why it's frustrating to be honest.

 

any idea of a company that does not require this??

no, got a couple to ring tomorrow... just getting very annoyed with it all...

 

I was like that! I had a list of about 30 and rang AON about 10th. Never bothered trying to beat it after that because I thought the quote was silly cheap for the cover. I also got an extra 1000 miles on my limit compared to A-Plan.

 

The residency thing might be a problem as I have been uk resident all my life!

 

Good luck!

YEEHAA!!

 

Got my first quote on the supra today!! A-Plan... even though they said 2 years was a must, they worked hard to get the underwriters to go for it.

 

Using previous (South African driving experience and cars driven) to get me a quote of £1555 for the supra. Says that he is very confident that that should drop to around £1000 next year.

That sounds very reasonable. Don't forget to try elephant.co.uk. they did me £900 and i'm 21 with 2 yrs ncb! Cheapest i had otherwise was almost £3000! Keep shopping.

 

They wouldnt quote, due to years on my UK license. But will try ringing them up today...

 

Got 3 - 4 more to call, and will decide from there. Just happy I got a decent quote...
